Another point of view.
Everyone has to make a living. these people obviously have a passion for this topic. They want to free innocent people from jail.
Can you really expect that that someone will get passionate about a topic, quit their full time job and devote themselves to their passion??? What would they live on?
Is there anything wrong with following your passion and making a living at to.
The people who make a living handing out educational materials about shaken babies are not evil either. They obviously also have a passion as well.
I don't think money has anything to do with this topic. I think our eyes have to be fixed on the point where the problem lies.
Justice systems who fail to properly evaluate all the evidence!

I guess you could produce what you say...but isnt that somewhat going for the most unlikely of scenarios ? this would imply devious intent on the part of the person doing it. Preparation, planning...all the while being angry, mad or whatever.

The Syndrome (2014 Documentary)
Audrey Edmunds, mother of three, spent 11 years in prison for killing a baby she never harmed. And she is not alone. What happens when widely held beliefs based on junk science lead to the convictions of innocent people? The Syndrome is an explosive documentary following the crusade of a group of doctors, scientists, and legal scholars who have uncovered that "Shaken Baby Syndrome," a child abuse theory responsible for hundreds of prosecutions each year in the US, is not scientifically valid. In fact, they say, it does not even exist. Filmmaker Meryl Goldsmith teams with Award-winning investigative reporter Susan Goldsmith to document the unimaginable nightmare for those accused and shine a light on the men and women dedicating their lives to defending the prosecuted and freeing the convicted. The Syndrome uncovers the origins of the myth of "Shaken Baby Syndrome." It unflinchingly identifies those who have built careers and profited from this theory along with revealing their shocking pasts. Shaken baby proponents are determined to silence their critics while an unthinkable number of lives are ruined.
