Nurse Lucy Letby smirked as she delivered a 'memory box' for a baby she was caring for, who was fighting for his life
In a surprising turn of events, a panel of experts, led by Mark McDonald, the barrister for Lucy Letby, has come together to challenge the conviction of the British neonatal nurse. The panel claims there is 'overwhelming evidence' of Letby's innocence in the case involving the murder of seven babies and attempts to murder seven others at the Countess of Chester Hospital between 2015 and 2016.
Dr Dewi Evans, the lead prosecution witness, has been at the centre of the storm. After Letby's conviction, he has been vilified, ridiculed, and faced online trolling. Dr Evans, however, maintains his original evidence and labels Letby as evil, calling on her to confess to her crimes.
The murder charges against Letby were based on her having injected air into the babies' stomachs via feeding tubes or into their veins. However, the panel suggests that in one death attributed to Letby, the baby actually died from natural respiratory complications and chronic lung disease. They also question the fitting of a wrong-sized breathing tube by a consultant 'who didn't know what he was doing' in another case where Letby was convicted.
Meanwhile, the parents of a newborn son who was rushed to a special unit due to breathing issues are left wondering about their son's safety. The couple has told their son about Letby, and he asked if she was the 'naughty nurse that tried to kill me.' The couple is now grappling with the possibility that Letby may have harmed their son, who suffers from delayed development and seizures.
The nurse who gave a 'memory box' to the parents containing a hat, wristband, and blanket, usually given to parents of lost children, was none other than Lucy Letby. The parents who received the memory box are left with a mixture of emotions, as no charges relating to their son were ever laid in the investigation of Letby.
Dr Dewi Evans has accused a 'metropolitan elite' of medical experts of maligning him. The mother began to cry, thinking something terrible had happened to their son, but the nurse assured them that their son was still alive.
A probe into whether Letby harmed any other babies at the Countess of Chester Hospital and Liverpool Women's Hospital is ongoing. The report by experts who believe Letby is innocent puts the deaths at the Countess of Chester down to natural causes or poor medical care. Lawyers are fighting for a review into Lucy Letby's case, claiming she is the victim of a miscarriage of justice.
However, the couple's views on Letby's guilt are not unanimous. The dad believes Letby is 100% guilty, while the mum veers from guilt to innocence depending on how she feels that day. As the case continues to unfold, the public awaits the outcome of the review and the truth about Letby's guilt or innocence.
