Overview

A summary of the key points of this story verified across multiple sources.

Lucy's Letby's lawyer announced plans to request a re-examination of her convictions after the prosecution's key expert, Dr. Dewi Evans, changed his opinion on the infant deaths. Letby is serving multiple life sentences for the murder of seven babies, but her defence argues the evidence against her is no longer credible. They cite fresh medical reports and expert opinions that challenge the findings during her previous trials. The Crown Prosecution Service maintains that the convictions are safe, as previous appeals were denied. This unprecedented move raises questions about consistency in expert testimonies in legal proceedings.
