“So before Letby was convicted of murder after so many unexpected neonatal collapses, there needed to be a robust analysis of whether doctors had made mistakes in the management of the babies, and whether doctors had made mistakes in their analysis of why the babies had collapsed,” he added.
The case of Lucy Letby took on a shock twist yesterday after an international panel of experts claimed they “did not find any murders” in the deaths of the babies she was found guilty of killing.
Sir Davis has previously used his speeches in the House of Commons to call for a retrial, claiming “there was no hard evidence against Letby” and the case against her was “based on a coincidence she was on shift for a number of deaths”.
Her legal team has made an application to Criminal Cases Review Commission (CCRC) to review the case, and a group of doctors and politicians held a press conference supporting her supporter’s claim that a miscarriage of justice has occurred.
Canadian doctor Shoo Lee, a retired pediatrician, convened the international panel of 14 experts to re-examine the 35,000 pages of medical evidence against Letby.
