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

[MCFC Wirral]

I never realised how hard nurses work until I spent time in hospital. There may have been some power aspect to what she did. Playing with lives.

I’m somewhat uncomfortable about this conviction. And in turn feel uncomfortable about that.

My brother and his wife are both north west consultants and I had Sunday lunch with them the weekend after the convictions and they both said they were sure she did it. For medical and logistical reasons. And they are therefore probably better placed than me to evaluate that.

But I think the evidence is questionable. Doesn’t mean I think she’s innocent. But that isn’t the legal and factual test.

There’s something about this that doesn’t quite add up.

Controversial view, I know. Like I said, I feel uncomfortable about this. The verdict was so emphatic and there have been so few dissenting voices. Both of which give me cause to question my own view on this, but I still have concerns around this conviction.

But I wasn’t there. At the trial. And that absolutely needs to be said.

I somewhat agree with you.

I read the New York Times report into the trial and conviction which was banned in the UK, it asked a lot of questions and for me there is some small doubt.

One of the biggest worries is that her friend's, and work colleagues held her in incredibly high regard, does this mean she is not guilty, no, but she hardly has the profile of a serial killer.

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.

For Daily Sceptic read echo chamber for right wing conspiracy theorists like editor-in-chief, the repellent Toby Young.

I genuinely don't know the reason I read about the article in the Asian press and found it from there.

It was a long pieces and thinking the girl was guilty I can away after reading with a few doubts.

But a few days later the high court threw out her appeal, so they clearly have no doubt.

The courts don’t always get it right. Barry George was found guilty for the murder of Jill Dando yet many believed his innocence from day one. He was eventually cleared.

It was because there is an ongoing retrial of one of the counts she wasn't convicted on. So technically you were correct. It's prevented from being read in the UK in order to not prejudice the trial outcome.

Any opinion on the points in the article?

Or are you content to leave it at name calling?
