The inquiry, led by the senior Court of Appeal's Lady Justice Thirlwall, is expected to probe three areas of concern: the experience of the victims' parents, the conduct of the hospital's staff, and the broader culture of the National Health Service (NHS).
Lucy Letby was handed multiple life sentences because she was at the scene of all seven infant deaths, it was proven that theythe babies were poisoned, and she even wrote an incriminating note. Unfortunately, andeven despitethough the fact that the courts have ruled overwhelmingly against her, armchair detectives are still pushing theories online to make her seem innocent. It's time to fix the system that allowed such a monster to kill babies, not rehash this open-and-shut case.
There's no doubt that Lucy Letby is now a convicted killer, but there is a chance that she could successfully appeal. One of the main pieces of evidence against her was a doctor who claimed he saw her standing over a dying baby, but this could be seen as hearsay. As for the note, it could've been the words of a depressed nurse feeling guilty about not being able to save a life. Given the amount of support Letby still holds, it may be good to review the case one more time.
In a world that celebrates abortion up until birth and damaging children in the name of transgenderism, the case of Lucy Letby shouldn't surprise us. In the very same hospital Letby was killing prematurely born babies, there were legal abortions taking place for unborn babies of the same exact age. While society is rightly horrified by Letby's crimes, the next question it must ask is what role modern culture played in creating such evil.
