Lucy Letby Lawyer Says He Has Submitted 26‑Expert Dossier to CCRC as Channel 4 Documentary Airs

Her barrister says a dossier from 26 experts has been lodged with the CCRC seeking a review of the convictions.

Overview

  • Barrister Mark McDonald told Good Morning Britain he has sent roughly 1,000 pages of fresh material from 26 experts to the Criminal Cases Review Commission.
  • Channel 4 begins a two‑part documentary, Lucy Letby: Murder or Mistake, which explores competing claims about the case and features parents who describe troubling encounters with the nurse.
  • A 14‑member neonatal panel chaired by Dr Shoo Lee publicly reported it did not find murders and attributed outcomes to natural causes or care errors.
  • In the Baby K retrial, the Crown Prosecution Service acknowledged some door‑swipe data used in timelines had been mislabelled, intensifying scrutiny of circumstantial evidence.
  • Letby remains under a whole‑life order for seven murders and seven attempted murders after losing earlier appeal bids, and the CCRC review is ongoing with no court decision to overturn the convictions.
