Lucy Letby - this has the potential to be huge

[CliffH]

Whatever the deal is? Lets be thankful there isn’t capital punishment any more.

As you say, at least without capital punishment we don't risk another 'Bentley and Craig' case.

From memory it was ambiguous as to the “let him have it” Bentley “allegedly” said, when caught on a bungled robbery was plea for Graig to surrender the gun over to the police?

That's right. Also, nowadays Bentley would be regarded as having an intellectual disability. Craig didn't hang, as he was only 16 at the time of the murder.

In the Letby case, much was allegedly done behind closed doors or out of site. This chap here in this new story was doing things in plain site using his lunch knife to perform operations. Apparently they are looking to charges of manslaughter.

the sad deaths of all the children can be accounted for without the need to invoke the hand of a single individual. As such, the conviction of Lucy Letby is unsound. That is the conclusion of a panel of experts convened by a new defence team for the person sent to prison for causing their deaths.

Just to correct you..... the sad deaths of all the children can be accounted for without the need to invoke the hand of a single individual. As such, the conviction of Lucy Letby is unsound. That is the conclusion of a panel of experts convened by a new defence team for the person sent to prison for causing their deaths.

Let us not forget that there are a whole series of issues involved not least the incompetence of the original defence team who seemingly did not challenge the statistics or the medical evidence presented by the prosecution despite the means to do so being available. Unfortunately having an incompetent defence is not grounds for appeal.

Let us not also forget that all of those children had parents and the last thing they need is things being dragged once again through the media, both published and social. It needs to be resolved satisfactorily but the process will not be helped by argument amongst those using opinions based on selective interpretation of what information is publicly available.

Corrected Thanks @Docb

Regarding your point above, I take a different view. "If" Letby is innocent, the last thing the parents of those children want is for an innocent person to be vilified, imprisoned and their future destroyed and for those potentially responsible to get away scot free by use of a scapegoat.

In terms of the process/publicity, where/if an injustice occurs, it unfortunately takes media intervention, publicity and public support to get these sorts of injustices over turned, so the last thing we need is for the public and media to keep quiet.

This is worth watch. A review of the evidence on insulin. Has anyone any comments or observations on it? Thanks

I agree that that press stunt (the panel) was laughable. Dr Lee, I think, has already contradicted himself prior to his appearance in the panel.

Letby’s new team are desperately trying to turn public opinion against the convicted baby-killer, but I think they’re having the opposite effect.

This is an interesting read. If you scroll up on the images/charts, the page stays still but it brings up more content scroll by scroll. Seeing the timeline of the deaths and reading the emails just convinces me more of her guilt:

I can't help but think of Harold Shipman. It has similar overtones if Letby actually did this, not just a guilty verdict.
