Lisa Hayden-Johnson is a British woman from Brixham, Devon, who gained infamy for fabricating her son Matthew's severe illnesses over several years, leading to her conviction and imprisonment. This case is one of the most notable examples of Munchausen syndrome by proxy (MSBP), a form of abuse where a caregiver exaggerates or induces medical conditions in someone under their care to gain attention and sympathy.
