Police Defend Lucy Letby Case Amid 'Ill-Informed' Criticism

News summary

Detective Superintendent Paul Hughes of Cheshire Constabulary has condemned supporters of convicted nurse Lucy Letby, labeling their doubts about her guilt as 'ill-informed' and 'insensitive.' Letby, convicted of murdering seven infants and attempting to murder others while working at the Countess of Chester Hospital, is serving multiple life sentences. Despite extensive evidence against her, including a lengthy trial process, a significant number of individuals continue to advocate for her innocence, with some media outlets even calling for her forgiveness. Hughes emphasized that the investigation was thorough and involved multiple juries and appeal court judges. Meanwhile, Letby's barrister, Mark McDonald, has submitted new expert reports to the Criminal Cases Review Commission, arguing that they undermine her convictions. The police have chosen not to engage in public debate to respect the families affected by Letby's crimes.
