Again, if this is all true then how come this wasn't brought up in her initial defence? It's hardly as though her defence team was pushed for time to arrange evidence and witnesses in her favor.
Grossly inaffective assistance of counsel imo. I'm surprised WS members seem overwhelmingly confident that this conviction is safe.
As a medical professional who worked in an NHS hospital for twenty years, I have had concerns with this case since the trial first began.
There's absolutely no reason for several, highly regarded medical professionals to come forward and take such an interest including Dr Lee who published the study that the prosecution based the main manner of death on (air embolism) and further publish a new paper completely debunking the prosecution's narrative that this was murders by air administration via venous catheter causing air embolism...
The risk of the potential damage to each of their professional reputation by supporting the theory that a convicted baby killer is innocent, cannot be underestimated.
The CCRC MUST investigate this thorough and refer to the court of appeals. I completely agree that prior to any charges being filed, a highly qualified multidisciplinary team of professionals in all areas of relevance should have been formed. This is necessary - and needed to question this as unsafe. It was never a safe conviction. Of course it will cause further trauma for the families of each baby. That is a tragedy but the chance of an completely innocent person having had 8, 9 years suspended, remanded, labelled a baby killer,and convicted to several whole life orders based on mostly conjecture on the part of Dewi Evans and two hospital doctors at least one of which had caused significant calm (albeit perhaps unknowingly to at least one neonate... This must be taken seriously.
I can't explain the risk as a registered medical professional but I'm sure the risk is higher as a highly regarded specialist, to come forward due to personal concerns about this case... I wouldn't risk it despite my reservations with this case so I commend the dozens who have been brave and unbiased. Dewi Evans is the opposite.
