Former hospital bosses suggest Lucy Letby’s convictions are shaky due to new evidence regarding the baby deaths.
The managers claim her convictions are shaky. They say new evidence questions them. Experts think medical issues caused the deaths. This could change everything about the case.
This new evidence is going to the CCRC. The CCRC investigates possible wrong verdicts. Letby’s team wants the case reviewed. They hope for a new appeal soon.
The managers’ lawyer represents ex-hospital bosses. These include the CEO and medical director. She said the expert panel is highly respected. The CCRC should assess the new evidence fairly.
She argued pausing is crucial for fairness. Continuing now ignores key information. The inquiry might miss serious care problems. Ignoring this would be a mistake.
The lawyer claims the jury had flawed information. Death causes might be different too. The inquiry’s report would be based on shaky ground. This “bedrock” could turn to “shifting sands.”
She denied they are trying to delay things. Investigating alternative causes is important, she argues. It won’t automatically excuse them. The managers want the inquiry paused now.
These managers sent a letter to the Health Secretary. They hope he’ll pause the inquiry. They acknowledge the families have waited long enough, but recent info needs careful thought.
Letby also wants the inquiry paused. She says it would be unreliable otherwise. Letby is serving a life sentence. She killed seven babies and harmed others. It’s such a mess.
