Lucy Letby Facts
Legal milestone

CPS charging-decision statement published

The Crown Prosecution Service publishes its charging-decision statement: Lucy Letby charged with eight murders and ten attempted murders, later amended before trial. The charging decision was made on the material then available — the Dewi Evans causation opinion, the shift-rota chart, the Roche Cobas insulin assay result, the Post-it notes, and the Facebook and search-history evidence. It was not made on the post-conviction expert evidence that has since accumulated.
