The court heard Robins’ baby died in a late stage of pregnancy and she blamed her midwife for the stillbirth, claims that were being investigated by regulatory bodies. The court heard the victim was “distressed, scared, and in disbelief”, when she heard about the video. “Once something’s on the internet, it tends to be out there forever,” Judge Robinson told Robins. The defendant had written an apology letter to the victim and Judge Robinson believed her remorse was genuine.
