  11. The Letby case sounds like yet another miscarriage of justice due to people failing at statistics.

    We had an identical witch-hunt case against a nurse in the Netherlands, Lucia de Berk, who was exonerated.

    Richard Gill, a mathematician who helped get de Berk freed, says the Letby case is a carbon copy: inquisitor style evidence seeking against a nurse, and lousy, fragile statistics on the biased data.

  16. Lucy Letby has been framed for multiple murders & attempted murders which never happened. Her life sentences join England's long list of wrongful convictions. Other nurses live in fear of being similarly stitched up as the scapegoat for underfunded, understaffed hospitals.

    Michele Worden is a former advanced neonatal nurse practitioner (ANNP) at the #CountessOfChester Hospital’s neonatal unit, where #Letby worked. Here Worden describes a unit “not fit for purpose”.

  17. “There was no medical evidence to support malfeasance causing death or injury in any of the 17 cases in the trial,” the report concludes. “Death or injury of affected infants were due to natural causes or errors in medical care.”

    Just because people wanted someone to blame doesn't mean there was someone to blame. I said this last September (fedimon.uk/@AlisonW/1131019490 ) and still do; there is no direct evidence against #Letby.

  22. I express no opinion on the probability of Letby being able to successfully appeal against her conviction, but I will observe that if she does, then a lot of people who have given evidence to the public inquiry about how she was able to get away with it and why nobody stopped her are going to feel pretty silly.

  27. The desire to have someone to blame for a series of events does not mean that there actually was someone to blame.

    A hospital suffering a superbug, doctor shortages and a neonatal unit ‘out of its depth’ and selective reporting alongside the incorrect use of statistics meant that Letby's verdict is very unsafe and should be reviewed properly.

  47. I've said this in the past and repeat it now, correlation and coincidence are not evidence and do not prove guilt.
    Feeling oneself to blame for events you can't control is, however, all too common.
    Criminal liability requires being beyond a reasonable doubt. I continue to believe that standard was not reached in the #Letby trials.
