Topic: Lucy Letby miscarriage of justice?

There seems to be a lot more to this case than meets the eye. Good that MP David Davis is lending his considerable weight to the situation. A figure who commands some respect. Seems that those who accused Ms Letby had most to lose if she wasn`t convicted. Let`s see how this one goes.

So she didn’t murder them, just provided “bad medical care” and accidentally injected them with oxygen…….so instead of murder its culpable homicide - let her rot.

guess finding out who wrote the "confessions" in her personal diary as well will unlock the real killer.

Apparently she wasn`t working when some of the incidents happened, further investigations required.

I thought it was the case she was on duty when all of those incidents happened, but was not on duty when other similar things happened (and they were not included in the case). But perhaps I`m wrong (in which case I`m very keen to be corrected).

Unfortunately human thinking and appropriate use of data often are not well aligned. I guess seeing threats that aren`t actually there has played a key role in keeping humans alive.

Well remembered Buspasspar.
Since then the main prosecution witness has said he was wrong.

This is precisely the mentality that confirms the death penalty should never return

Didn’t say anything about killing her 😂 it’s also why I agree that the death penalty should never return. But currently she is guilty of killing numerous babies. Until that’s completely overturned and proven to be false on ALL counts, she can rot.

Glad to be on the same wavelength as sadindiefreak. From the documentary I saw the injection with oxygen was an flawed accusation and the entry in the diary could have a very different meaning from being a confession. She may have been led to believe that she was guilty of the deaths, when she wasn`t. Hopefully this case gets a proper viewing, in light of the new evidence.

The first serious question I remember hearing was when loads of statisticians cast huge doubt on some of the statistical methods used in the prosecution`s evidence.

I might be proved wrong here,but I never believed she was guilty. She was the fall guy.

Correct me if wrong - but did not senior staff such as consultants flag up their concerns and these went unactioned by the management ?

If so, a properly conducted review of the cases and further investigation might well have prevented more tragic baby deaths.

The initial verdict was eventually appealed if memory serves and upheld.

Yes, the Court of Appeal turned down the request for an appeal on the 24th October 2024. Things have ramped up further to that. I don`t have loads of respect for many Tories but David Davis is certainly one I very much respect. I have a hunch he will help to get this case reviewed.

Time will tell. What I found odd was the reporting of her scrawls in a notepad. Those could have of someone who felt guilt over a death despite not being the cause or intending to cause death. Like a driver who knocks down and kills a child who runs out in front of them might feel it was their fault. Maybe if they`d been going slightly slower or had left slightly later or had the brakes replaced at the last MOT when they were an advisory etc etc.
