Letby case faces increased scrutiny and questions about guilt

bbc.com

The Lucy Letby case is under increased scrutiny as doubts about her guilt grow. Her new legal team and supporters, including MP Sir David Davis, have raised questions about the evidence used in her conviction for murdering babies at a hospital. The Thirlwall Inquiry is nearing its conclusion, but it will not address Letby's guilt. Meanwhile, a panel of 14 medical experts claims to have found no evidence of murder, contradicting the prosecution's case. Cheshire Police are expanding their investigation into the hospital, focusing on individual staff members for potential gross negligence manslaughter. The inquiry's findings are expected to be published in Autumn 2025.
