Chapter 20 - The Previous Illnesses

Could prosecutors prove Nora caused all three previous episodes?
Not with equal certainty.
No leftover tea.
No preserved samples designed for toxicology.
Medical records documented symptoms, not cause.
Some laboratory abnormalities were nonspecific.
Investigators found suggestive pattern evidence.
Not magical retrospective proof.
The May incident was strongest.
The earlier illnesses became context.
I learned to tolerate uncertainty.
October may have been deliberate.
December likely.
February strongly suspicious.
I wanted certainty.
Law does not create it because victims deserve emotional closure.
