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

[Mr Kobayashi]

Is there a point where negligence in these extreme cases becomes criminal? Like say hypothetically a police officer or fireman runs away from an emergency in cowardice instead of saving someone in distress resulting in their death (hopefully that would never happen!) - or in this case management of an NHS trust let a monstrous serial killer murder innocent babies and do nothing?

Surely there's a point where that becomes criminal and not just "gross negligence"?

Gross negligence is a form of manslaughter. Yes.

Unfortunately there are other people who are just as evil if not worse than her

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.

The fact the woman didn’t want to attend proves that making her attend would of been some sort of punishment if not much at least the families would have had the pleasure of knowing she was there reluctantly

Don't want to even think if that's possible

They should’ve made those twats in charge of the trust who did nothing attend those impact statement readings

I think they’ll be targeted next….the BBC has an article about Alison Kelly, Letby’s former nurse manager at Chester. Apparently she’s been suspended from her new role….and imo won’t work in the NHS again.

I would hope the rest of the shower who were in charge at Chester get similar treatment…

I haven't read all the thread, so maybe this has been said already: unbelievably she stayed in her cell and didn't appear in court for sentencing and to hear victim statements from the parents of murdered children.

How can this possibly be?

The papers are saying that a change of law now needs looking at.... but I don't think that is necessary at all. Prison Guards could use reasonable force to get her into the dock (and if she starts shouting off may I recommend Gorilla Tape?) but they didn't apparently fearful that 'reasonable force' could so easily become 'unreasonable force' and they could be sued!

What is going on in this country right now, will nobody actually show some courage and do the right thing?

Even if she struggled and a 15 stone guard broke her arm, would anyone really be bothered? She is lucky it is not the 1950s a broken arm wouldn't be the issue, it would be a broken neck....

And then does this…

Can they be looked at for Corporate Negligent Manslaughter or whatever they call it?
Alison Kelly, Nursing Director at the time has been suspended by Northern Care Alliance thank goodness. The other two Ian Harvey and Tony Chambers retired on full pensions.... reckoned to be around £1.08M apiece!!

I wouldn't force them to attend at all. if they know they are going down for life, what's to stop them just kicking off all the more, shouting, screaming and causing chaos in court? Imagine the obscenities and abuse that could be launched at the already grieving parents and how utterly distressing that would be. When you kick off in a courtroom anyway the judge usually has you removed so they could play that particular gambit all day long.

Just let them know that their earliest parole date will be delayed by five years for non attendance and have done with it.
