Trying to Keep Their Baby

Liz Campo and Mike Testa had their baby taken away from them by the state of Washington two days after she was born. In "Special Report: What's best for Baby M?" Jonathan Martin of The Seattle Times tells the story of this troubled couple's efforts to get their baby daughter back. Martin uses court records, case files, medical records, police reports and interviews with Campo, Testa and their lawyers and case workers. His painstaking reporting creates a powerful narrative about a legal system that affects parents and their children around the country. Mike Siegel's poignant photo's tell the story in an equally powerful way.
