Former nanny training as solicitor

Louise Woodward was in the news a lot in Britain and the USA a couple of years ago, when she was convicted first of second-degree murder, later reduced to involuntary manslaughter (something like ‘fahrlässige Tötung’) when the child she was looking after died. She’s started a two-year training contract with a firm of solicitors in Oldham (see article in the Oldham Advertiser). BBC News reported this on 20th January, but it has just been picked up in the USA (via Law Sites, who got it from law.com, where it has probably scrolled). Some of the international headlines are on the lines of ‘Baby killer turns lawyer’.
