Lucy Letby infant murders trial - Guilty verdict (P 13)

All this forcing people to attend basically hinges on wanting to have a feeling of almost revenge. But that does then rely on the perpetrator actually being bothered by what they've done. If they've shown no contrition to that point I wouldn't particularly want to see them smirking or looking completely disinterested when they're sentenced.
Impossible to know what you would want if you were a family member in that situation. Reading out a victim impact statement is obviously something many want to do.

But there's part of me that thinks telling someone who is capable of committing such heinous acts how much devastation those acts have caused must bring them some satisfaction.

Maybe the best course of action is to treat her as worthless and not give her the attention she seemed to crave. Just sentence her to full life tariff and ignore her.
