Lucy Letby campaign doctor claims there were ‘no murders’ despite baby deaths

Hereford: A group of medical experts recently held a press conference. They claimed that no murders were committed in the Lucy Letby case. This follows the tragic deaths of seven infants, which led to Letby’s conviction.

Lucy Letby, 35, was found guilty of murdering babies and attempting to murder others. This happened between June 2015 and June 2016. She received a 15-life sentence and is expected to spend her life in prison.

Since her conviction, an online campaign has questioned the fairness of her trial. Families of the victims have criticized this campaign, calling it hurtful and distasteful.

During the press conference, Dr. Shoo Lee spoke about the findings. He stated that the medical evidence does not support the idea of murder. Instead, he suggested that the deaths were due to natural causes or poor medical care.

A committee of 14 neonatologists analyzed the cases and presented their findings. Sir David Davis chaired the meeting and has called for a retrial, believing Letby could be cleared.

Letby was accused of using various methods to harm the infants while working at the Countess of Chester Hospital. One method involved injecting air into their bloodstream, causing serious complications.

Letby will not be eligible for parole and is likely to die in prison. Her lawyers recently applied for her case to be reviewed for a potential miscarriage of justice.

The Criminal Cases Review Commission is now looking into her case. They emphasize the importance of considering the families affected by these tragic events.

Letby has previously lost two appeals against her convictions. In May, her request to introduce new evidence was denied. The judges ruled that the evidence did not support the prosecution’s claims.
