Experts hit out at 'flawed' case against killer nurse
SEVERAL medical experts criticise the "deeply disturbing" and "flawed" evidence used to convict killer nurse Lucy Letby in a new documentary on TV tonight.
Letby was found guilty of murdering seven newborn babies and attempting to kill seven others and was handed 15 whole life sentences, meaning she will never be released from prison.
But in ITV's Lucy Letby: Beyond Reasonable Doubt? her barrister Mark McDonald says: "There's no direct evidence, no one saw her do anything wrong."
He adds: "In the trial, they started from the starting point, 'She has done harm. Now we have to show how she has harmed each child.... we're just going to put together a theory.
"And she was convicted on that theory."
