SUMNER COUNTY, Tenn. (WKRN) — A judge has restored the murder conviction of Lindsey Lowe, a Sumner County woman who killed her newborn twins by suffocation in 2011.

In October 2022, a Sumner County Judge granted a new trial for Lowe after her attorney argued she had poor legal representation at her first trial and at least one juror was biased against her.

The Tennessee Court of Criminal Appeals determined there was no biased juror and Lowe’s conviction was reinstated.

Lowe has already served nine years of a 56-year sentence. She was released on her own recognizance in 2022 under the condition she stayed with her parents. She was re-booked into the Sumner County jail on Friday and has since been released on a $75,000.

According to testimony at trial, Lowe hid her pregnancy and killed her newborn twins hours after giving birth to them on a toilet. It happened at her parent’s home in Sumner County in September of 2011 and she was arrested two months later.

Valuations of startups have quietly rebounded to all-time highs. Some investors say the slump is over.
Generative AI businesses aside, the last couple of years have been relatively difficult for venture-backed companies. Very few startups were able to raise funding at prices that exceeded their previous valuations. Now, approximately two years after the venture slump began in early 2022, some investors, like IVP general partner Tom Loverro, are saying that the worst of the downturn is behind us and the startups that survived should shift from cash preservation mode to spending money on growth.
