My view of Letby remains that of all the possible explanations for the babies’ collapses and deaths, deliberate harm is the least likely. There are far more likely explanations, backed by better clinical and statistical evidence. Unless the police can produce the additional.

The contribution of Dr Neena Modi is all the more significant because Dr Ravi Jayaram told me she would be an excellent senior and respected neonatologist to give an independent view of the causes of the collapses and deaths. And her view is the complete opposite of his.
"Dr Neena Modi, ex-president of the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health, says: 'It's been deeply disturbing that one can have such a tremendously important trial that seems to have been conducted with so many flaws.'".

The most telling interview is with @guardian journalist and Paul Foot award winner @JoshHalliday. He covered the case in court and describes his absolute astonishment when the defence didn’t produce any expert witnesses to demolish the prosecution case. He is further astonished.
What is most telling about this documentary is how, in a very measured way, it is equally scathing of the defence and prosecution in allowing such a scientifically and statistically illiterate trial to go ahead. The system for selecting and using expert witnesses in complex.
