The Matty Eappen case was another instance of gross overreach for personal aggrandizement. What happened to the boy was horrible, but it was in no way murder 2, even if you agreed with Coakley's over the top demonisastion of the nanny, Louise Brown. Coakley's insistence on not allowing a manslaughter verdict led to the most embarrassing smack down of a prosecutor in MA history. Her daily press conferences getting more and more ridiculous, all to build her political profile at the expense of a dead toddler and a British teenager with no clue what was happening to her.
