Is Louise Woodward Still In Prison? Let’s find out about 19-year-old’s whereabouts through this article.

Louise Woodward is a British citizen whose murder trial in 1997 captivated the world. Woodward, who was 19, was accused of killing baby Matthew Eappen in Louise’s care. 

According to the prosecution, Woodward acknowledged playing ‘a bit roughly’ with the infant in an attempt to keep the baby calm. Nevertheless, the prosecution proved their case in the eyes of the jury.

As a result, Woodward was sentenced to life in prison with a minimum of 15 years to serve by the judge.

Woodward’s accusation was enhanced to first-degree murder after Matthew died of a brain hemorrhage a few days later.

Who Is Louise Woodward?

Louise Woodward, a British woman, was found guilty of the involuntary homicide of nine-month-old Matthew Eappen in Massachusetts in 1997 while working as an au pair.

In November 1996, she started caring for Matthew’s parents, Deborah and Sunil Eappen, but on February 4, 1997, Matthew was brought to the hospital after Woodward found he wasn’t breathing.

Where Is She Now 2021? 

After her release from prison, Louise Woodward returned to the United Kingdom and was interviewed by Martin Bashir for Panorama.

Deborah and Sunil Eappen initiated a legal complaint against Woodward for wrongful death in 1997, effectively barring her from profiting from the sale of her story.

However, due to his inability to pay for legal representation, Woodward lost the lawsuit by default.

Woodward moved to London South Bank University to study law, graduating with a 2:2 (Hons) degree in July 2002 and starting a training contract with an Oldham law firm.

Woodward left the law in 2005 to pursue a career in dancing as a salsa instructor. She married the owner of a truck rental firm in 2013 and had a daughter a few years later.
