It seems pretty cut and dried to me. In cases where it was one parent that killed their child, 70.8% of the time it was the woman who was responsible.
But what if only 10% of cases involved only one parent? That would mean that in 93% of the cases a man was involved in the murder.
See how the numbers can be cooked?
But I am guessing that most of the explanation is that so few single parent families are headed by the father. Obviously the primary caretker is going to be much more likely to be accused of abuse.
