  • Lucy Letby will spend the rest of her life in jail for her “cruel, calculated and cynical campaign” of murder and attempted murder of babies at the hospital where she worked.
    The most prolific child serial killer in modern British history was told by judge Mr Justice Goss there was a “malevolence bordering on sadism in your actions” for which “you have no remorse”.
    The 33-year-old was convicted by a jury of murdering seven babies and trying to kill six more while working in the Countess of Chester Hospital’s neonatal unit between 2015 and 2016.
    Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has branded Letby as "cowardly" for refusing to appear in court for her sentencing, saying the Government is looking at changing the law so criminals are forced to attend their sentencing hearings.
    Barrister and lawyer Chris Daw KC tells Ian Collins that it would cause an "absolute fiasco" if defendants are physically forced into court.

    If you are almost certainly facing a whole life tarif there is literally nothing the state can do to threaten you.

      @@michellemcgarr1709 she was present because she worked more shifts and hours than her colleagues with families due to staff shortages. She wrote the note after being confronted by a Dr who accused her of killing babies in her care. She went home in pieces, distraught at having been labelled a baby murderer, wrote the note saying that she must be evil for allowing those babies to die in her care and what a horrible nurse she must be for them to have died. Of course, that’s only one interpretation, a more reasonable one in view of her having been accused of murdering babies.
      Unfortunately for Letby interpretation of anything she did or said was presented in a negative way. ‘Trust me I’m a nurse’ was presented as carrying malice although there was no evidence to support that.
      Baby deaths stopped after she had been arrested, presented in a negative way against her whereas the reason baby deaths reduced was down to tighter medical operating standards such as longer gestation, but let’s keep pointing at Letby.
      Was she also responsible, possibly on her days off, for all the babies that died in similar circumstances at Staffordshire hospital? Those deaths were put down to staff shortages, coincidently there were staff shortages on Letbys ward but it’s best not to mention anything that points away from her guilt.

      On the contrary, his response was measured, considered and rational. Lucy Letby is now in jail for life, what is this insistence on ritual humiliation? And why do you call HIM a psychopath, that really is losing all sense of reality.
      I have every sympathy for those who have lost their children; the experience must have been horrific beyond words, and, of course for her own parents who did their best to bring her up to be a responsible citizen - their lives too are destroyed. But the impulse towards wanting to wreak personal vengeance on her by forcing her to be present at sentencing smacks of the 'baying for blood' mentality seen in previous centuries. This does not paint a particularly flattering picture of present-day society, especially, as Chris points out, forcing her to be present at sentencing may not be accomplished without applying physical restraints. And again, as he points out, this in turn may well bring up questions pertinent to human rights legislation. A damning verdict has been delivered - let us leave it at that.

The victims of crime have to sit through weeks, sometimes months of hearing about the perpetrator and their excuses, mental frailties plus appalling tactics from defence lawyers. I don't believe it is beyond understanding why those victims want to see the criminal who has devastated their lives in court to receive their punishment. This barrister is infuriating and wrong. He has more pity for her than the victims 🤢 l wonder how 'calm' he would be if his child/mother/sister were murdered.

    Even if we went one step further and gagged and choked her into the courtroom, the real victims will always be the families who either lost babies (or near miss) or who now have severely disabled babies as a result of her heinous acts. The families deserve to be able to look their babies killer in the eye and tell her face on the damage she has caused, if she laughs then that's effectively a solid confession. I'm sure the families would always be cautioned about what could possibility happen.

    The good outcome is we know, Letby, is guilty because she's too ashamed to show her face for sentencing. However, on the doctor's side knowing they had the evidence to go to the police while just waiting behind managers is truly despicable. These Doctors are not children nor teenagers. They are fully grown adults with their own adult minds. You can go to the police anonymously and report anything that suspiciously looks like a crime or more crimes are going to be committed. If they were worried about their medical licenses being taken away from them then, surely once they had caught, Letby, they would have had their medical licenses given back and been compensated with the loss of earnings. I just think some of this was being conjured up more for their own benefit rather than even more innocent babies to go on and be murdered or who are now critically damaged for the rest of their lives.

    In other countries the prisoner has to go to court and face their sentence and family of the victim. Why should the UK be different? The prisoners usually are quiet. They accept it because it's part of the process. Lucy Letby will not care though about the victims. She will never care about the families. What she will care about is spending her life in jail. She will care that she has no freedom or choices. She will never have her own home, or get to choose to spend a day in her home or go on a picnic. She will never go on holiday, dancing or shopping with friends. She will never get dressed up to go out and be excited about the possibilities of her future. She'll never get married, be in love, have a baby. She will spend her life having no control or choices. That for a person who wanted control, wanted someone to love her and wanted people to think she is a great person, is going to be the worst punishment for her. She is not capable of feeling for the people she hurt, but she will care very much how long, horrible, lonely and boring the rest of her life will be.

      "severe mental health problems". Well, she´s a criminal psychopath. That´s how they are. I followed the case closely, and I didn´t see any surprising elements in her behaviour. There is no mystery about her character or mindset. Her refusal to show up in court also fits into that pattern. Because psychos and narcissists like to dominate and control every situation. Letby is a real classic, kind of a specimen for criminal psychopaths. Her case suits perfectly for teaching students of forensik and psychopathology.

Yet maybe her solicitor could have had a word, such as do the right thing. Instead the lawyer oribsbly said dont worry, we will appeal. Law is a money making scheme. Sad but true. If we had hanging we vould have insisted, come into the court or face hanging in the morning, if you come we will delay hanging for a year. Alas we don't have hanging, which i believe should be brought in for these kind of offenders.

    It’s a central principle in our democracy and justice system , for justice “ To be heard and seen to be done “ . How can she avoid being present at sentencing . It’s nothing to do with voyeurism and I’m stunned that a Barrister cannot understand the basic principle of seeing justice done. Don’t the parents of the murdered babies have a right to seeing the perpetrator facing justice ? It’s another basic principle that suso3cts face their accusers . She was found guilty , is he suggesting she not go to prison now because she might not want to go ? She has forfeited all her usual rights in a democracy it has absolutely nothing , zero , to do with pointing at a guilty person . This is a fundamental principle .
    If someone has disappeared and tried in their absence this is because there is no other recourse . This man’s concept of our justice system is ludicrous . A guilty person is made to go to prison and forcing them to the court is no different .
    It makes every difference to the victims to see the person found guilty and sentenced , they can get some small closure by seeing justice done , I cannot believe this man is actually a Barrister when he so clearly fails to understand basic principles and the compassion of a victim seeing the process take place. Outrageous to suggest wanting to see justice is akin to being “ unseemly and baying for blood” . , let him explain that to the families because the court is not a wide open public arena , it is a small place full of mostly officials . Anyway, having ones child coldly murdered by someone supposed to be caring for them and also mocking j
    The parents by the way she took imprints of the child’s feet she killed to give them , I don’t think baying for her blood is an abnormal act. The problem it seems is that Barristers and professionals such as this one forget that they are there to serve the family and society , not their own peculiar thoughts and assumptions about us lesser people . People,with some small authority can be so arrogant sometimes and we’ve seen the same attitudes in the medical administrators who refused to act in the babies and parents interests but instead covered up the suspicion to save the reputation and sensibilities of those running the hospital .

    The big fallacy of Chris Daw: He does not understand, that the convict will adapt to the situation. Which means: If she knows from the beginning, that she has to show up to the court - no matter how, and if necessary with physical violence - then she will NOT start shouting or fighting. Because it makes no sense! You only start fighting, if you achieve any kind of advantage from that. No criminal wants to be seen in public tied up and gagged.

    I’m shocked how ignorant that barrister is. The sentence should be passed direct from judge to offender regardless of why or who it benefits or doesn’t. The sentence should be handed directly from the person giving the lawful sentence to the person found guilty not via any third party word of mouth. The rights of the perpetrator should be wiped for that process only as at that moment their rights are irrelevant just as their right to freedom is at that moment. The family would potentially find more closure and the person found guilty wouldn’t essentially hold even more power over the family’s right to justice than they get to effectively do one final time. They shouldn’t have the right to choose to ignore the court. Sentencing should always be in person if the person is in custody, zero exclusions
