Will Lucy Letby Get a Retrial?

Описание: Is Lucy Letby a serial killer or the victim of a catastrophic miscarriage of justice?

In Episode 3, British investigative journalist John Sweeney and broadcaster Ruth Barnes examine what happens next in the aftermath of the convictions in the Lucy Letby case. With the Thirlwall Inquiry underway, they ask whether the process is built on the presumption of guilt and what that means for the search for truth.

They explore the condition of the neonatal unit at the Countess of Chester Hospital, the role of key expert witness Dewi Evans, and why forensic psychologist Gísli Guðjónsson has stepped away from the National Crime Agency to challenge the interpretation of Lucy Letby’s notes.

With the Criminal Cases Review Commission now central to what comes next, could this case return to the Court of Appeal? And if it does, will it mean a retrial, or freedom?
