Episode 3: Enter Sherlock Holmes. Not.

Was There Ever A Crime? The Trials of Lucy Letby with John Sweeney

In this episode hosts John Sweeney and Ed Abel Smith ask critical questions of the Cheshire Police investigation into the state of the neonatal clinic at the Countess of Chester Hospital: why did the coppers plump for the conclusion of a serial killer at large? Why did they hire, then fire a professor of statistics and not tell the defence? And did the police understand the complex medical reality, that the unit was looking after very sick premature babies, some of which had every chance of dying naturally?
