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

[Mr Kobayashi]

PETER HITCHENS: What if Lucy Letby is not guilty?

I must ask: What if Lucy Letby is not guilty? Actually I very much wish somebody else in the national media would raise this. I have enough enemies as it is. But it looks as if it falls to me.

What do you think about it?

An especially unhinged article even by the Daily Mail's standards.

It's obvious that Hitchens is being a contrarian for the sake of it. One of of his famous tropes thrown in for good measure, "why am I the lone voice to question this?".

Fucking **** of a man, you'd be better educated reading the Beano.

I await the write up on ‘What if Jeffrey Dahmer was innocent’.

Definitely, but even so, betraying the fact he clearly has a low key pervy crush on her is a weird flex.

I dunno. I’m not saying his motives are pure. And I’m certainty not saying that I think she’s innocent.

But I’ve read several independent articles from legal professionals who followed the case a lot closer than I did, saying her defence case was a little strange, to say the least.

So I think he might have a point on that at least. Whether it was strange enough to justify an appeal, I wouldn’t have any idea.

Lucy Letby: initials of babies noted in diary on dates of alleged attacks, court told

Note saying ‘I don’t know if I killed them. Maybe I did’ also seen in Manchester trial of nurse accused of murdering seven babies

This was damning for me. If she was innocent surely she'd have not done that, or have had initials of babies who weren't part of the investigation.

Lack of witnesses, only one person who was a plumber at the hospital spoke in her defence that raw sewage had been seen coming out of one of the sinks on a unit she worked on. Why did her defence only have this one person and no one else able to contribute? The prosecution on the other hand had a raft of people.

Here's an article suggesting she must be allowed to appeal...

Lucy Letby Must Be Allowed an Appeal – The Daily Sceptic

The case against Lucy Letby is far from watertight, says Prof David Livermore. Many more babies died than she was blamed for, and she wasn't even on shift when a key insulin bag was changed. She must be allowed an appeal.

... I'd hate to be a juror on this trial.
