Some of those disorders include sickle cell anemia, meningitis, $ 299 mo* 36 mo. lease $2,344 due at signing Magna Society Audi Sylvania 5570 Monroe St. | Sylvania, OH www.sylvaniaaudi.com hemophilia, congenital heart disease and certain vitamin deficiencies. Also, the physicians interviewed by the Goldsmiths say that shaking a baby hard enough to cause these kinds of inju- ries would result in a broken neck long before any of the three criteria condi- tions could occur. “It’s junk science … these people [in the documentary] have built a move- ment, and courts around the country are recognizing it,” Susan said. Some of the heart-rending scenes in the film include child welfare representa- tives accusing terrified parents of abus- ing their children — children who were subsequently taken away and placed in foster care while the innocent parents were prosecuted. A law professor inter- viewed in the film estimates that well over a thousand people are in prison for convictions based on science that has since been disproved, and thousands of other families have been torn apart and destroyed. “It’s old-school investigative report- ing in documentary format,” Susan said. “We want a lot of people to see it, and we hope the people who have started to undo this disaster in the criminal justice system will continue to gain traction.” * The Syndrome will be playing at the Maple Theater in Bloomfield Twp. on Saturday, April 30, at 4 p.m. and Sunday, May 1, at 8 p.m. Susan Goldsmith and Meryl Goldsmith will be present at both screenings, along with Josh Burns, a Michigan man released from jail after being falsely accused of “shaken baby syndrome.” For details, call the Maple at (248) 750-1030. *$2,344 due at signing, plus taxes, title, options & dealer charges. $0 security deposit.

The documentary, which Meryl described as a “labor of love,” was fund- ed by the cousins and their families. To work closely together on the writing and production, Meryl left her Los Angeles home and lived in Portland while they worked on the film. “This was a wonderful opportunity to take my craft, which I’d been honing for many years, and pair with Meryl, who had been studying her craft in documen- tary filmmaking. We got really close on this project,” said Susan, “and she got me hooked on electronic music.” The Syndrome, released April 15 in theaters across the country and through a variety of video-on-demand platforms such as Amazon, DirecTV, Google/ YouTube and others, chronicles the history of this alarming myth and high- lights the cases of innocent parents and childcare providers whose lives were ruined by false accusations based on faulty medicine. 2036260 New Detroit Inc.
