The fact that one of the proposed murder methods is not actually known to be physically viable, as in possible in the sense of physical laws, should have been a red flag for any serious nation.

Other babies, he said, had been harmed through another method: the intentional injection of too much air or fluid, or both, into their nasogastric tubes. “This naturally ‘blows up’ the stomach,” he wrote to me. The stomach becomes so large, he said, that the lungs can’t inflate normally, and the baby can’t get enough oxygen.

When I asked him if he could point me to any medical literature about this process, he responded, “There are no published papers regarding a phenomenon of this nature that I know of.” (Several doctors I interviewed were baffled by this proposed method of murder and struggled to understand how it could be physiologically or logistically possible.)

Honestly reading through the rest of this article, even bearing in mind the obvious angle, Lucy Letby sounds like she was working like a fucking hero at the worst place in British healthcare, what a disaster.

Getting to the bit where she gets out of a fucking Salsa class and has 3 missed calls about giving a certain treatment to a baby was horrible, just the second hand stress reading that makes you wanna vomit.

Giving it a read sounds like a lot of doctor malpractice due to the crumbling NHS so the blame was pinned on someone who took the most shifts to save up and buy a house.

Brilliant

The strong likelihood of an enormous miscarriage of justice sending an innocent woman to prison for life is a bit sad
