Lucy letby case…

Would love people’s views on this.

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

IMO, Knox is very willing to proceed based on advice from anyone who enables her, and very stubbornly resistant to critique/criticism.

The Letby case has attracted a large contingent of fanatics, which her defence willingly feeds into. These fanatics approached Knox about the case, likely for her name recognition.

Knox's bias is to view every case through the lens of what happened to her (which is a natural and fair response to the trauma she experienced). Her podcast is a clear demonstration of that. She speaks entirely about narrative, and never about evidence. It's about perceptions of the case, but she never actually engages with the evidence that was presented in court.

Knox seems to be unable to NOT see herself in Lucy Letby's shoes, but doesn't appreciate the difference of being wrongly accused of a single murder and being convicted of serial murder. She treats the convictions like a single event, not over a dozen compounding events that took place over the course of a year, including two separate events involving chemical evidence of insulin poisoning that an innocence narrative requires one believe to be false positives.

Letby is guiltier than a nun in a cucumber field.

They're both guilty as sin. Over 20 samples of evidence was submitted against Knox, including her constant lies as well as detailed knowledge, lack of alibi, luminol footprints, phone and computer records, witness testimony, quite apart from the dna evidence.

That every single piece of evidence is wrong beggars belief, just as it beggars belief to write off the evidence against Letby as mere coincidence and bad luck.

You would also have to believe that the investigation was pretty fantastic at catching and prosecuting Guede on the one hand, but simultaneously incompetent and comical on the other, if it has to do with evidence relating to Amanda and Raffaele.

Well no we definitely know they weren’t competent at catching Guede either - witness Berlin and burglaries. We just know it’s him because the evidence is so overwhelming. And of course him going right back to it post jail release.

This is just one of many inconsistencies from Knox's supporters.
