The ITV documentary was pretty impressive but the main highlight was - how useless was Letby's defence team? As are nearly ALL defence teams. Too many cases; insufficent resources; if a tenth of the evidence found by her current team had been presented at trial, she would never have been convicted.
Inadequate Representation At Trial. One of the points in MY current appeal, being considered by the CCRC.
Judges don't like finding this. They protect the legal profession. But they MUST NOT DO SO.
Literally hundreds of inadequate defences in the Post Office scandal. Hundreds convicted. Many now dead.
Shocking.

And let's not forget JUSTIN PLUMMER - finally acquitted after bent cops tried (and succeeded) in keeping him in prison by using that old trick - a "cell confession" to a dead man!

WAKE UP BRITAIN. WAKE UP MEDIA.

A very troubling case when some experts seriously question the "evidence".

Britain's history of keeping the innocent locked up is frightening.

Remember Lord Denning wouldn't allow appeals by subsequently found innocent "IRA bombers" purely on the notion the Establishment could not be seen to have got it wrong.

And in the innocent "IRA bombers" cases bent lying police who fabricated evidence got off Scot free.

Yes Hedda and the bent cops in the Justin Plummer case should be getting prosecuted for manufacturing evidence by a now dead crook. It stinks this kind of unpunished police corruption. Worse than Wayne Couzens.

I watched the documentary. It was very interesting and the third documentary to question Letby's guilt. (channel 5, Panarama, and now itv).
It appears that an potentially innocent person has to stay in prison because she had a poor defence team who didn't present all the evidence at the original trial. They are quite happy to present new allegations though (Why weren't they presented at the original trial).

The police (and the CPS) seem mainly to work to an agenda - get convictions. Why? Because we, the public, would become very disturbed if crimes went unsolved. Better to lock up innocent people than allow the public to revolt. But the reality is - times have changed and the new world enables a new kind of criminality to blossom.

As I suspect if premature babies are routinely allowed to die probably globally) by incompetence. Why? Because people either don't really care or are incompetent. And False Accusers are allowed to make fortunes through lying or exaggerating. Why? Because it is A GOOD STORY, especially if wealthy or famous people are involved. Lawyers (both sides) make fortunes. Police get promotions and increased budgets. Courts fail to understand how easy (internet) liars and their enablers can produce convincing evidence. Punters (often stupid) fall for simplistic media coverage - particularly concerning "monsters". Those wishing to deflect attention from real criminals (in my case - Max Clifford; in Letby's case - bad hospitals; in the Post Office case - Horizon; in Malkinson's case, bad CCRC decisions).

It's SIMPLICITY again, isn't it? Many people simply do not have the time or inclination to think deeply or even just below the surface.
