The Telegraph

The police investigation into the criminal negligence of staff at the Countess of Chester Hospital adds weight to the conclusions of the expert panel that the infants died as a result of medical errors, not malicious intent. As they have shown, the real cause of the deaths was likely not Lucy Letby, but significant problems at Chester’s neonatal unit regarding teamwork and discipline.
