- Guilty as charged
Letby has too many “Me Too”s … if this case was about a man charged and found guilty of attacking multiple women - some of whom were killed and some left with lifelong injuries - then AFTER the guilty verdict police find 13 more victims… nobody would be protesting his innocence.

United Kingdom2 months ago - Stubbornly incurious and biased.
The presenters pose as serious journalists but are heavily biased and make little attempt to hide it. From the start, they took the trial verdicts as gospel and continued to do so long after serious doubts emerged from world leading excerpts across multiple fields. When the dust is settled on this case, it should go down as a textbook case of how not to conduct journalism.
Apple Podcasts1John AitorUnited Kingdom2 months ago - Arrogance
These two will likely end up with egg on their faces.
The way they talk about Lucy Letby is as though they don’t know, or care, about the controversy.
Awful bias, as mentioned by many more.
Apple Podcasts2Stream WaderUnited Kingdom2 months ago - Shockingly bias reporting
It’s a shame the platform isn’t being used for good investigative journalism. Quite lazy to always take the position of the outcome, however I enjoy hearing the details of the trial that are otherwise unheard. Annoying that there are not 2 x weekly updates. Also Liz’s annoying childish speech inflection dumbs her reporting down.

Nah, true crime you have to pay for, zero credibility as obviously pay their interviewees, back this one.
