A woman in Australia who spent the last 20 years in prison for killing her four children has been pardoned and released.

55 year old Kathleen Folbigg had always said she was innocent, insisting her children died of natural causes.

A judicial review concluded there was reasonable doubt, following evidence that two of them had a genetic mutation that could have been the reason for their deaths.

Michael Daley, the attorney general in the state of New South Wales, says it's time for reconciliation:

"I think we all have to put ourselves in Ms Folbigg's shoes and let her now have the space that she needs to get on with her life. It's been a 20 year long ordeal for her".
