swimming in a pool, but a scientist on Buckley's team said her fainting may have been due to dehydration." The Sydney team also argued that they were not aware of CALM mutations causing death while asleep in young children. Conclusion and verdict In 2019, following the conclusion of the hearings, Furness determined that nothing presented by Vinuesa's team had "clearly explained" the deaths of the infants. Vinuesa was disturbed by the prosecution's unwillingness to have doubt cast on the previous verdict and the lack of calmodulin experts at the hearings, and set out to find the opinions of the best recognised international experts. One of them, Prof. Peter Schwartz of , had just co-published a paper, Calmodulin mutations and life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias: insights from the International Calmodulinopathy Registry, which contained information about a family with a nearly identical CALM variant (G114W) in which two children suffered a sudden cardiac arrest while the mother, who had been the carrier of the gene's mutation, was seemingly healthy. He concluded he had "significant doubts" about Folbigg's conviction, and that the accusation of infanticide may have been premature. Despite the CALM2 variant now qualifying as "likely pathogenic," Buckley's team and the prosecution seemed unwilling to accept the new evidence. Vinuesa dug into Schwartz's Registry and found that up to 20% of sudden cardiac deaths occur in sleep, and that there were nine reported cases of these types of deaths in infants and toddlers and wrote up a brief for the inquiry. In July 2019, the presiding judicial officer, Reginald Blanch, delivered his verdict that Folbigg would remain in prison, citing that he "preferred" the expertise and evidence of Buckley and Skinner, and excerpts from a diary which showed evidence of postpartum depression, which Vinuesa felt showed a woman "grappling with the occasional despair of motherhood." Vinuesa reflected on society's pressure on mothers and her own experience." Appeal Vinuesa believed that the verdict was "deeply unjust," and continued her research into CALM2. She persuaded Danish biochemist, Michael Toft Overgard, to run tests on the mutation in a synthetic cell, resulting in unambiguous results that the CALM2 variant in Folbigg's DNA was not only arrythmogenic (i.e. “pathogenic” and therefore potentially lethal), but mirrored the results of other CALM variants known to cause death in young children while asleep. In 2020, Vinuesa, Arsov, Schwartz, and 24 other scientists co-authored a paper called, Infanticide vs. inherited cardiac arrhythmias,
