Sally Clark was a British solicitor and mother who became widely known due to her wrongful conviction for the murder of her two infant sons, Christopher and Harry, in the late 1990s.

In 1999, Sally Clark was convicted of the murders based largely on the assertion that the probability of two sudden infant deaths occurring in the same family was extremely low.
