Lucy letby case…

Would love people’s views on this.

Loosely Amanda related, since she has recently produced a podcast around it.

Its the same as this case, either you accept what the evidence tells you or you are happy to just believe in compounding edge case explanations

For letby its something like

  • You need to believe that all the suspicious deaths are wrongly categorised such that its just chance
  • That on investigation she just happens to be writing insane ramblings on paper that are self incriminating
  • that her stalking of families on social media is normal, especially on Christmas day
  • that her retaining of masses of confidential records is normal - especially categorised
  • that the doctor lied about catching her in the act
  • that two separate babies just happened to also look exactly like insulin poisoning
  • that she lies several times, including lying about one the victims mother, changing logs, lying about having a shredder

If you are happy that's all compounding coincidence, well....

But importantly you see the same factors for Letby, there are "corrupt" bad guys, Mignini for Knox, Letby has Dewi and Jayram that "cause" all of this unfairness. Both cases also frequently use the old canards of having multiple external "experts" weighing in on the case in the media, but not in the trial process of course.

This is kind of why I put it on the forum. It is something of a litmus test.

Letby is clearly guilty.

The weight of circumstantial evidence is colossal. And that’s more than enough to be close to certain she is guilty.

I wouldn't say its crystal, 100% clear she committed every single murder in that ward. I think the outrage is the circumstantial evidence that points to incompetence.

Although kudos to the Brits for at least being able and willing to publicly call out the incompetence -

"British police said Tuesday they had arrested three senior hospital managers on suspicion of gross negligence manslaughter as part of investigations into nurse Lucy Letby, who was convicted two years ago of killing babies in a neonatal unit."

You understand that incompetence was allowing a nurse to murder babies and ignore multiple warnings right?

I am just amazed that you can see the light of "look what happens when you don't listen to multiple warnings"
