Letby Lawyer Appeals with New Medical Evidence

Lucy Letby's legal team is submitting new medical evidence to the Criminal Cases Review Commission (CCRC) to support her claims of innocence after being convicted of murdering seven infants and attempting to murder seven others. Her lawyer, Mark McDonald, argues that the evidence, backed by an international panel of neonatologists and specialists, suggests that the babies' deaths were due to poor medical care and natural causes rather than murder. A separate report questions the reliability of insulin test results used to convict Letby for poisoning two infants, citing potential false positives due to antibodies. Families of the victims have dismissed these reports as flawed and reiterations of her defense. Letby, who was refused appeals previously, hopes this evidence will lead to a review of her case. The CCRC is currently evaluating the submission without a set timeline for a decision.
