An article has been published about the notes that Letby wrote saying things such as “I did it” and “I am evil”. Was this a confession or simply things that she was encouraged to write following therapy?

    Among all the faults of the lackluster defence, what was also forgotten was the fact these were not normal babies- normal babies pop out of Mum and go home with her the next day to live a happy life. It is human arrogance to expect that all these underweight, sick babies passing through an ICU are just going to have a bit of treatment, voila!! become stable and survive. The prosecution implied that Letby had gone berserk because she was a smothered, spoiled only child... of course her parents thought she was precious she had been an ICU baby herself and it was touch and go if she survived. There are reports which may/may not be true that Letby was granted 1.5 million in legal aid, as it is not expected that a £30 -40K a year nurse (who had the burden of so much life/death responsibility) could pay it herself. But maybe that was not enough in the legal profession and she got a bargain bucket defence. As not only did they fail to deliver expert witnesses they didn't challenge any of the nonsense the prosecution was putting out such as showing a phone video of Letby out on the tiles with her drunken mates...I mean what was the point of that? or trying to say she was guilty because she was scorned by not having the attention of a married doctor.The prosecution was clutching at straws and the defence should have whacked them out of their hands.

    The problem with this case. The prosecution were allowed to retrospectively go back years fitting things together in a way that suited them. Now I appreciate people would say or what else are they expected to do? The key for all this is the medical expert told them these babies had come to harm, if people are going to challenge that medical expertise this case takes on a completely different look.

  • @dianamincher6479

    The convictions are unsafe because there is insufficient cogent evidence to prove beyond reasonable doubt the commission of murder by Lucy Letby!

  • @julieyates405
    @julieyates405 24 дні тому

    Lucy's Barrister Ben Myers didn't call any of Lucy's Expert Witnesses, except the plumber. This creates the impression she was failed by him. Could it be possible the judge gave directions they were not to be called to avoid witnesses on both sides disagreeing with each other during the trial, as Expert Witnesses are supposed to be providing independent, unbiased, evidence to the court? I believe Ben Myers is continuing with the Appeal against the sentence related to Baby K, with solicitor Richard Thomas. Barrister Mark McDonald is starting the lengthy process of reviewing the case files in preparation for a CCRC Application. He is working without fees, as he has done for another nurse in prison, with a potential MOJ. I expect others from the legal profession, will join the growing army of genuine experts across the medical and scientific communities, offering their help. There's no Legal Aid for this I understand. The strength of feeling around this case is so strong, if it's necessary, I wouldn't be surprised to see it crowd funded to help Lucy find justice and get home to her family.

    All deamed natural deaths.... Doctor A who testified annonymously sent her a Text message at the time of the death saying the cause of death was natural: then changed his mind at the trial.....The Text messages at the time of the deaths do not support the theory that Letby was obsessed with Dr A (Anonymous witness). In my opinion it is a case of a young nurse being scapegoated by older doctors.

    Hi Hannah,in 1992 I spent 3 weeks in psychiatric hospital.We were encouraged to write down our thoughts and draw pictures about how we were feeling.In 1998 to my surprise the picture and writing were shown to me in a file. As I was better,it was hard for me to believe I had felt so bad ,ever. No way should this kind of thing be used in evidence,it’s ridiculous. I had drawn a derelict city with no inhabitants,and in writing I had referred to the human race as ‘Pigs’. Nothing could be farther from the person I am. Lucy Letby is innocent,I am sure.

    Have always said the evidence was paper thin,I do feel for the parents involved,if she did it she should rot in jail but if she’s innocent ,one hell of a price for her to pay doing your job,and so they have someone to take the blame.She was convicted on hear say and theory of what may have happened. And what could have happened but know one really knows what did happen to them babies ,which may have had nothing to do with what she’s done.Surely their should have been,post-mortem to find cause of death.If nothing came up then how can they convict her with no evidence.Something May have gone wrong before she went on shift that resulted in the deaths on her shift it’s not impossible.

    Mike Lynch who drowned on his yacht recently was interested in the case and it's quite likely he would have put serious resources /used contacts in US.

  • @mikeshears8112
    @mikeshears8112 Місяць тому

    I am not a therapist. I am not an expert with statistics. What I do know is that while neither the defence nor prosecution can lie in court, they will present evidence so as to support their version of events. I’m feeling that with everything which is appearing in the media, a case is being made for a case review. If she is innocent then this is a howling miscarriage of justice which will affect her for the rest of her life, if she is guilty then the law requires that she is shown to be guilty beyond reasonable doubt, and doubt is what is being cast with these news stories. “Reasonable” doubt? That’s a different question. But we (as a society) need to have faith in our legal system and so there should not be reluctance to review cases where new evidence comes to light.

  • @mikeshears8112
    @mikeshears8112 Місяць тому

    Ok: instead of thinking about Lucy Letby for a moment let's think about how the law works. Someone is convicted , fires their legal team , retains new team. New team are obliged to explore every avenue which is open to them, that is their role, to do less would be dereliction of duty. Now come to Letby, there is a lot in the media lately which could be taken as grounds for unsafe conviction. But as you say we don't know everything. If there is a (potential) miscarriage of justice then it is 100% right that CCRC are approached to consider evidence. That being said let's take a moment to consider the effect this will have on families whose babies are dead or were injured. It will undoubtedly represent further emotional turmoil for them

    The problem is, as the recent documentary stated, no medical experts want to risk their careers in being a witness on her defence. Even if they think she deserves a better rationale. I always felt the trial was unsafe and was shocked she was convicted. That doesn't mean I think she's innocent but feel she deserves a fair trial.

    Total Stitch-up, definitely a miscarriage of justice - especially when you also consider they want £100,000 for the entire case transcripts. Maybe they dont want or like people asking too many questions, so set the price high, thinking nobody will pay it and therefore no questions will be asked. I just hope that now she has changed her defence team the truth will come out and she will be released.

    If these notes were jotted down after her first arrest, where the police questioned her.they obviously would have drummed it into her that she was guilty and had killed those babys. 2:44 So obviously she thinks now she did so she's putting down on note what she is thinking. I find it very hard to think that she is even capable of doing this.

    I've had reservations from the beginning of the reporting. The notes have always seemed to me the writing of someone under extreme stress. I also thought the prosecution was simplifying the care and treatment of neonates and making it sound like these were healthy babies who weren't expected to die. In reality these babies were in a neonatal unit because they were extremely vulnerable and needed specialist intervention to keep them alive In a unit working under so much pressure the babies lives would have been especially at risk I hope the evidence is reviewed soon.

I do not now if she is innocent- if she is guilty let her rot in prison- I am convinced from what I've heard and read that this conviction should be reviewed. I do wonder why did she do it? ; if she did, Many years ago I was sacked from my job on the basis of what a colleague and, friend, heard me say on the phone It was accurate but nobody new or cared about the other side of the call.
