Lucy Letby infant murders trial

Well, yeah I understand that mate, I was just saying I'm not sure if I'd want (as the parent) for there to be a retrial.. that was the point I was making, but, if they do, whoever the parents are, then that should be up to them. I don't know anything about law, and order, but I'd hope the bereaved have a say in the matter.. they're surely not saying though "I don't think she killed my baby!, mine died of genetics" or whatever.

You're mistaken. She's being retried for an attempted murder charge. The baby lived.

If this is one of the children left with life time injuries and specialist care, a guilty verdict may have a bearing on compensation due from a negligence claim or criminal compensation.

I'm sure it's not primarily about that and you would hope the children get the care they need anyway but these things have to be considered.
 
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?".

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.

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.
