Dear [MP name],

I am writing as a constituent to ask you to support calls for an urgent review of the safety of Lucy Letby's convictions.

In February 2025 an international panel of fourteen senior neonatologists, convened by Dr Shoo Lee, publicly concluded that they found no medical evidence of deliberate harm in any of the cases for which Ms Letby was convicted. Their findings directly challenge the medical evidence that was before the jury, including a misapplication of Dr Lee's own 1989 paper on air embolism. A formal application has now been filed with the Criminal Cases Review Commission accompanied by more than thirty independent expert reports.

Regardless of one's view of the verdict, public confidence in the criminal justice system requires that such substantive new expert evidence is properly examined. I would be grateful if you would:

1. Raise this case with the Lord Chancellor and the CCRC to ensure a timely review.
2. Support the work of the Thirlwall Inquiry as it examines the institutional response at the Countess of Chester Hospital.
3. Publicly acknowledge the weight of the new expert evidence.

Yours sincerely,

Why this matters

The Criminal Cases Review Commission is reviewing Ms Letby’s case alongside more than thirty independent expert reports. The Thirlwall Inquiry will publish its final report this year. Public and parliamentary attention shapes how quickly, and with how much independence, these processes run. Sir David Davis’s Commons debate in November 2024 was a turning point. Your MP’s voice in Parliament is the next step.
