New Letby Dossier Sent to CCRC as Channel 4 Documentary Highlights Deep Expert Divide

Her barrister says 26 experts' reports totaling over 1,000 pages are now before the CCRC.

Overview

  • Lucy Letby remains under whole‑life orders after convictions for seven murders and the attempted murders of seven other infants.
  • Barrister Mark McDonald says he has submitted fresh analyses from 26 experts and more than 1,000 pages of material to the Criminal Cases Review Commission.
  • An international panel led by neonatologist Shoo Lee reported it found no murders, citing natural causes or sub‑optimal care as explanations for the infants’ collapses.
  • Prosecution expert Dr Dewi Evans continues to assert Letby’s guilt and criticises challengers to the convictions, featuring prominently in Channel 4’s new documentary.
