This is Episond 6: The framing of Lucy Letby, the last episode in our series.

In this episode hosts John Sweeney and Edward Abel Smith tell the story of how neonatal consultant Dr B accidentally killed a baby at the Countess of Chester Hospital and how the jury never knew. Former NHS doctor Phil Hammond then sets out why he believes that a horrible hospital is a far better explanation for the tragic loss of babies than a serial killer nurse.

This podcast was independently funded and although nobody was paid to create or participate in the podcast, there are legal and other costs that we are crowdfunding to cover - if you want to support that please visit our Crowdfunder page.

Although this is the final episode in the series - we will be doing a bonus rounding up the case so far, also, if there are major updates we will consider recording an update.  Also, if you have information we are here to listen.  There are many people connected to the Countess of Chester hospital with information about the events that led to Lucy Letby being prosecuted, if you are or you know of anyone who has not spoken out please email us in complete confidence - lucyletbywasthereeveracrime@gmail.com
