The authors’ neuro‐pathological findings support this theory and also demonstrate injuries at the cranio‐cervical junction that account for the apnoea and hypoxia in infants with non‐accidental injury (Geddes et al ., 2001 a, b ). Although we accept that it may not be necessary to shake an infant very violently to produce …
