Lucy Letby

[FatCat]

This is a horrendous story and I feel for those whose lives have been torn apart.

Lucy Letby trial day three: Nurse 'killed two out of three triplets' - and 'smiled after killing another premature baby girl at fourth attempt'

Lucy Letby allegedly used the haemophilia of one child as a cover under which to attack him.

I don’t understand where they explain she was only allowed to work day shifts because they had suspicions about the fact babies were dying when she was working nights. Bloody hell if you have suspicions surely you suspend her and investigate!

Thats a horrific read.

What on earth was going through her head.

 

[CarrickBall]

Give her the lethal injection. No good to anyone.

Someone already posted a thread about this earlier.

Horrible read and no doubt a horrible trial for all families involved.

Trial begins of Hospital deaths

The same constant as in the Dutch case. More specific than that I’d say: A constant that the prosecution, and in turn the media, have highlighted. It’s a six month trial. We’ve had one day.

She is extremely twisted in a way I thought only existed in horror movies.

 

[Quicksilvera]

poor, defenceless and harmless babies in need of care and somebody could do harm to them. Simply awful and I hope justice is done for all the families.

 

[Corcaigh_the_Cat]

The trial is ongoing, she hasn't been found guilty. There's already a thread on this subject

I've been reading about this too. Horrific.

Not seen / read about a lot of actual evidence yet. Only circumstantial?

Strip back the emotions/ horror of what is being accused and it all seems odd to me

 

[bevoboro]

It reads like some sort of variation on Munchausen by proxy syndrome. Killing those poor defenceless babies and then trying to insert herself into the families grief, truly frightening and horrific!

 

[Angelofayresome]

Give her a lethal injection.

 

[Glover_elbow]

as horrific as it is, it sounds like she's seriously mentally ill.

I was reading about this and it is horrific what is alleged to have been done. I do feel uncomfortable that her face is being plastered all over when she is yet to be convicted and she is denying all the charges.

I'll reserve judgement until the jury makes it decision, but it made my stomach turn when I thought of the families. So sad.

 

[MoggasDog]

Every single parents nightmare. it is so gut churning to think that there could be human beings capable of something so evil against pure innocent little babies.
Those poor families.

I can only hope that she is actually innocent of all charges and that the children died from natural causes.
As said above, its not healthy for society that she is plastered across all news sites to be judged before the trial has ended.

I wish this is true mate, it’s cases like these that makes me lose all faith In humanity that somebody could do such a thing.

I don't think even horror movie writers could come come up with something so twisted and sick. Even if they did it would never see a movie set.

I see some news sites have reported on a confession note she has written. Made my stomach turn and appreciated my kids a little bit more than usual today.

Glad I'm not on the jury. Really feel for those who are.

Can you imagine if the evidence casts any doubt on what happened? Of course to convict it has to be "beyond all reasonable doubt". Can you imagine thinking, for example, that she's "probably" guilty but being unable to convict because "probably" isn't enough?

Really tough. Not sure it's entirely fair putting untrained members of the public in that position, but I don't know what the alternative could be.

 

[Muttley]

I see some news sites have reported on a confession note she has written.

I found that rather irresponsible reporting. When you read the full story she had written dozens of these notes, some of which said "I'll never marry or have children" and "I haven't done anything wrong" but it makes for click bait. It's hard to imagine that anyone could such things without being in some way disturbed or unwell. I'm just glad not to be on that jury.

as horrific as it is, it sounds like she's seriously mentally ill.

As are many thousands of people. They don't murder babies.

 

[zzzzz]

If it had been your child and IF she's found guilty would you want her to face the death penalty?
In a place where they do it, it's heaped further anguish on the parents of murdered children

I agree with you. Obviously the letter I alluded to is going to get more eyes on the story as a whole which can be a good and bad thing.
