Lucy Letby

– Presumed Guilty?
In July 2023, the name Lucy Letby became synonymous with one of the most shocking criminal convictions in British history. A children’s nurse at the Countess of Chester
Hospital, she was found guilty of the murder of seven infants and the attempted murder of six others. The verdict stunned the public, devastated the families involved, and was widely reported as a case of unprecedented evil within the National Health Service.
But beneath the headlines, the case has left many unanswered questions—questions not about
grief, or tragedy, but about evidence. Was the case against Lucy Letby as conclusive as the media suggested? Or could this be one of the most consequential miscarriages of justice in modern British history?
This book does not seek to diminish the grief of the families who lost children. It does not deny

that tragic deaths occurred. But it does seek to ask—methodically, critically, and fearlessly— whether the forensic, medical, and
circumstantial evidence presented at trial was truly sufficient to convict beyond reasonable doubt.
