It keeps cropping up that she may be a victim of a miscarriage of justice. I must admit that I didn't follow the trial too closely at the time but my general opinion is that she more than probably killed those poor kids. I know 'more than probably' means you should go for a not guilty verdict as a juror but lets be honest how many people, if they were on the bench, would? Especially for people who've been parents and watched their own babies suffer with illness and got themselves worked up because they were unable to wave a magic wand and make it better. While I don't like the thought of a young woman locked up and living in fear for the next 40 odd years I'm equally uncomfortable with a cold blooded killer walking free on a technicality. I don't like going too far down rabbit holes but they end up making you go batsh*t mental but this is a very interesting read. https://www.private-eye.co.uk/special-reports/lucy-letby |

Something about it didn't seem quite right.i can't be sure whether that's something about me and how hard it is to comprehend a nurse would do that or if it just didn't ring true enough.im usually prepared to accept the court's decision

A few years ago I read a report that stated 15 percent of all people in UK jails are innocent. I don't feel the cops would be fitting up someone who has killed multiple babies. However they did fit up the guy who they blamed for killing Jill Dando..and many others too. |

She was too fkn clumsy if they all died on her watch otherwise. The brat was born very ill, and had to be left in the prone position in a tilted bed. Sometimes a nurse would lay her on her back by mistake, despite a huge sign on the bed. We couldn't trust the nurses to get it right, and I had to pull the tongue out of a blue baby on two separate occasions. I can't imagine what kind of a job that must be on a neo natal ward, and I'm sure mistakes happen. MK hospital had a reputation for it, as their success figures, or lack of, were flagged and so we'd chosen a different hospital. Its almost certain that letby was on a ward where mistakes were made. If she was used as a scapegoat then that needs to be investigated. |

I think the authorities will find this case too serious and embarrassing for her to be found innocent..even if she is innocent.

What I dont understand is if she is innocent, why did she have all those papers that the police found, rambling on about how she had killed them and that she was a bad person, and also didnt one of the parents catch her trying to harm their baby?

Anyone can write anything on paper or in diaries and say 'We found these'' or 'She said this'..then claim to have found them in her home. Many times people have been convicted over 'admissions they are said to have admitted to their cellmate whilst on remand. |

Wasn't she encouraged by her ther*pist to write her thoughts down or something? I wouldn't necessarily take it to mean they were directly responsible if someone felt guilty about a death that happened on their watch in that kind of profession. But who knows,it didn't look good

I didnt really follow her trial, but there must of been a lot of evidence against her, if she is innocent tho and is released she will have to pretty much go into hiding for the rest of her life, there will be people out there that will still just see her as a baby killer

if she ever was released it would be pretty big news. it would likely be covered why the conviction was being overturned, but yeah, some people would never accept it. she could use the money from compensation award to move to New Zealand. |

I'm not sure that she would get any compensation. The guy who did 8 years for the Jill Dando murder got nothing. Some people who have their convictions overturned have had to pay board and lodgings out of any compo they got. One man was asked to pay back 75,000 for 25 years he wrongly spent in jail for sex crimes. I may be mixed up with some of those figures..but still. |

I think the rule for paying for your board and lodgings after being wrongfully convicted and released has recently been changed tbh. However it certainly was the case up until a few months ago. |

'In the UK the Government announced in August of 2023 that wrongfully convicted people would no longer have to pay for their living expenses in prison. However the government has said that people who were previously compensated for their wrongful conviction can not claim back any deductions made for bed and board'. |

One example. John Kamara from Liverpool was jailed in 1981 for killing a betting shop manager. Upon his release after the court of appeal judged his conviction unsafe Mr Kamara was ordered to pay 75,000 for his bed and board for the time he spent in prison. |
