Description
A Salvadoran woman has been freed from prison after serving eight years over the death of her newborn in hospital. She was prosecuted for "aggravated homicide" after being accused of "abandonment and neglect," arguing she had failed to sufficiently take care of the fetus while pregnant.
"It was a very hard trauma to live through and I don't wish it on anyone," says Lilian at a press conference held following her release. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
