KEY POINTS

  • 33-year-old Lucy Letby was convicted on Friday of killing seven babies in the neonatal unit of a hospital in England.

  • A handwritten note found by police officers who searched her home after the arrest read “I killed them on purpose”.

  • Letby will be sentenced on Monday and faces a very long prison term, and possibly a rare full life sentence.

      Wait I’m confused are there actually people who think she didn’t do this? I looked at the evidence it’s pretty f****** clear she killed like a bunch of babies. Like how much of a psychopath do you have to be to kill a baby not only a baby, preemies. The most defenseless of defenseless, like are you for real or are you just like joshing and having a laugh, are you for real?

        Oh YOU looked at the evidence? Ok, nothing more to do here boys, time to shut down the courts and legal institutions, we found a much better way to do things. Why haven’t we thought about contacting you sooner?

        You think there is no deception possible in this world? Imagine you killed someone and afterwards it turns out a mistake was made in the process?

      Then she was looking to end her life anyway. Used a rather round about method to pull it off, but it was her choice.
