The Patricia Stallings Case | Mysteries of the World
In 1989, three-month-old Ryan Stallings was rushed to hospital with symptoms doctors believed could only mean one thing — antifreeze poisoning.The evidence appeared overwhelming. Laboratory tests detected ethylene glycol in his blood, and investigators soon began to suspect the unthinkable: that Ryan’s own mother, Patricia Stallings, had poisoned him.When Ryan later died, Patricia was charged with his murder.But the case would take a shocking turn when new medical findings revealed a rare genetic disease that mimicked antifreeze poisoning almost perfectly.In this episode of Mysteries of the World, we examine the tragic case of Patricia Stallings — a story of medical misdiagnosis, flawed forensic evidence, and a mother accused of killing her own child.Written by humans.
