Lucy Letby Guilty As Hell Of Killing All Those Babies?
The current issue of Private Eye has a very interesting article casting doubt on my headline; well worth buying a copy just for this article.
At the time of Letby’s conviction and the appeal, the press damned her for such abhorrent crimes, leaving readers little doubt of her guilt.
But the Private Eye article casts doubt on the expert witness evidence and statistical analysis presented in the original trial.
One passage I found particularly interesting in relation to her appeal was that experts pointed out errors in interpretation of insulin results – but this was deemed inadmissible (in the appeal) because it was not new evidence, but a challenge to existing evidence.
No wonder so many innocents are banged-up and left to rot, if evidence presented in the original trial cannot be questioned based on subsequent analysis of that evidence.

and will whine like hell ( like a - like a - - whining thing) if I dont like it. The main point is that the babies were gonna die anyway I think and she was just near ...
Defence dont have to call their witness and dont have to disclose his report - and most probz he cdnt support her case
New evidence is new stuff and NOT " oops I shd have said.." - and should not be available in the original instance.
so you cant endlessly reargue stuff - want some Latin, no? well anyway - "interest res publicae sit finis ad litem" - it is in the interests of the ROman Republic that there shold be an end to litigation
golly shows how old that is - res judicata is pretty strong amongst the English ( that something is settled by a judge and that means settled).
I thought her conviction was a true bill
Oh the insulin bit is straightforward - insulin is secreted as a hairclip and then the loopy bit is cleaved off - but kinda still there and can be measured
so if it is low, and the insulin high, then the insulin has come out of a bottle
Beverley ALlit was caught by this, and so was the paed (Rowe) who saw the discordant result Fri 5pm and went home and she killed a baby over the week end - oo-er Doctor !
(dismissed)
there are some quite high hurdles for the CCRC and they were really attuned to the IRA bombers and have NOT functioned well in other areas.
and as for Letby - being present and not involved at the sudden death of a seek leedol bebby is unfortunate but SEVEN is incredible !
also I have had bad days at work but never went home and wrote notes to myself - PP is a killa and should DDDDIIIIIIEEEEE !!!!
Did she do locums/ shifts anywhere else? The thing about Allitt , Thorpe ( thallium poisoner) and Toronto is that they went else where and the unexplained deaths followed them - case closed as far as I am concerned.
By the way - Murder on Ward 4 ( Allitt) is not really worth a read. Nurse kills patients and gets caught - is an adequate summary
I do buy PE occasionally, and will try to find this issue.
I read a very interesting newspaper article recently (It might have been posted on here) which cast down on Letby's guilt.
I don't believe she did it. These were very sick babies. No CCTV, no one saw her do anything wrong. I think she's innocent.
Cloverjo, I believe this might be the newspaper report you read. It's quite long and detailed, the part about using statistical evidence is disturbing.
