Do we know which babies have brain damageI think if she is found guilty the exceptional seriousness of the offending, and associated premeditation, would qualify her for a whole life sentence in either a prison or a secure psychiatric unit, dependent on expert evaluations of her. The cases where the children who survived were brain damaged have been charged as attempted murder and the sentence for that would put it at the maximum end of the scale already. The judge considers the position of trust as an aggravating feature at sentencing. JMO

Tragic,I believe of the children who survived it was G, M and possibly Q.
Oh that’s interesting. It seems like it’s usually dr Evans with the firm opinions excluding other causes and dr Bohinx saying she couldn’t rule out another cause. In this case, it’s the other way round.10% BBC -

Dr Evans agreed with Ben Myers KC, defending, that he could not rule out infection "for sure".
However fellow expert witness, consultant paediatrician Dr Sandie Bohin, said she had excluded infection.
She told the court: "[Child J] was a well baby. She was ready to go home. Babies who are ready to go home do not have major desaturations which lead to prolonged resuscitation. [...]
Lucy Letby: Baby's seizures did not happen naturally, trial hears
Child G is multi-disabled with quadrapeligic cerebral palsy. She is also visually impaired, needs a feeding tube and 24 hour care.Tragic,![]()
And I really hope we get to hear about the murder charge for child k which the prosecution offered no evidence for a couple months before the trial began, leading to a not guilty verdict being entered for this charge. I really want to hear all about why this was originally charged and then abandoned , particularly the medical evidence .I really hope Chester Standard is there today, if they're moving on to Child K.
With two and a half months between Child J at the end of November and Child K in February, I'm interested to see if they will focus at all on what led Dr Jayaram to check up on LL with Child K.
Also I think Child K might be a relatively quick case to present, with her only being at the Countess for a matter of hours, so if Chester Standard misses that, evidence could be finished in a day and they could move on to Child L tomorrow.
I'm unsure what you mean. Opinions are formed on facts, and we haven't heard what their opinions were, to be able to say they changed them.It will be interesting to see if the defence use it to really build on their suggestions that the medical experts are changing their opinions to fit the facts.
