I wonder if we’ll hear the end of the prosecution today. Definitely by the end of this week I’d think.

Can just imagine her in the car with her parents en route to the airport for their Ibiza trip. Vengaboys blasting 'woah were going to Ibiza, woah back to the island' 🎵

It makes you wonder why she didn't get a job at Liverpool Women's or another tertiary unit, she clearly thought she was too good for Chester. I know in a text to Dr NN she says it's too far but Chester to Liverpool is not very far that she couldn't commute. I think the extra "drama" would only have kept her satisfied a bit longer though and those killer instincts would still have eventually came through.

Knowing Chester and the people so well did help her get away for so long and exploit it's deficiencies.
Also makes you wonder what she would have done if she was still on the ward when it got downgraded to level 1 and it got even more ‘boring’ (as she put it) …. Doesn’t bear thinking about.

I too wondered why she didn’t just try for a move to Alder Hey or Liverpool given how she wanted more interesting cases. She was young with no commitments, perfect time to take on a busier job. Probably cause in a big hospital she’d be fairly invisible and wouldn’t get as much attention - doubt she’d get this kinda time to be texting.

crappy work today innit. I have booked myself an 'admin' day though to keep up to date. Thinking about a tactical sick day in a few weeks so I can go back and get my court fix.
We are driving up to Leeds on Fri morning and wondering how to tell my partner it makes perfect sense to go via Manchester Crown Court….

My family member told me they were at Chester Court soon and I nearly had a heart attack with excitement until I realised my mistake 🤪 could investigate the swastika garden I suppose 🧐

Hope not, it’s what I’m going to call my baby if she is a girl!

It’s nothing to do with LL, I’ve always really liked the name 😂 I also like Anne of Green gables and Lucy Maud Montgomery wrote that. I’m now wondering if we should go with another choice 😦
How about "Lucille" (pronounced Lu'sil in English and Lu'seel in French) instead?

Oh if it had been in Chester I'd have been there far more often!
There's a satellite court somewhere here for some of the parents who weren't able to go to Manchester every day and I think that's where Mark does his reporting from too, when he can be arsed showing up. But no public allowed for obvious privacy reasons.


I'm happy to take a stroll about the swastika garden and report back to let you know if it's made me unconsciously racist towards blonde nurses and thus accuse them of murders they didn't commit 🥴

This one isn't unusual to me, we do it all the time in nursing, 'my patients' or since I work mainly in CYPS we say 'my kids' all the time, or I'll often ask people 'how are you getting on with your kids?' Meaning their allocated patients. Colleagues have always said it too so I'm guessing it's pretty common.
Oh I didn't realise that. Make sense now that you mention it; it's like saying "the babies assigned to me on this shift". Thanks for clarifying.

I was behind in the DM podcast and have caught up. Another thought I had from listening was that LL was always all about making sure the families had opportunities to take lots of photos of their babies after they had died ( were murdered). She would get a camera and the triplets father even commented that LL made sure she found them an SD card with lots of memory. I wonder if this was connected to her FB searching? Like she hoped to see some of the photos? I’m not sure that she was necessary looking for pictures of “dead babies”to quote her words during her during police interviews, but maybe she was looking in the hope that she would see some reference to herself made by the families, like about how amazing she was, so more like an attention seeking thing?
I find her morbid obsession with taking photos of dead babies, preparing memory boxes for the parents, keeping photos of sympathy card on her phone, doing FB searches on them moths/years later, so macabre. Definitely gives off "serial killer" vibes.

“It's interesting how she equates the lack of attention she gets from her colleagues at CoCH after a baby dies as a lack of "team spirit". This in itself could be a motive for her to harm babies. And the fact that she attacks Baby C only 6 minutes after she complains about this to a nurse colleague is very telling IMHO.”

I know it’s been said before, but the excellent way you have worded this does make me think of “I killed them on purpose because I’m not good enough”, like it’s a spiteful statement rather than an innocent anguish.
Wow! I hadn't connected that to the post-it note. Thank you. I'd always wondered why she'd added "because on not good enough" after "I did it on purpose" -- it just made no sense when she admits that she did it on "purpose". But now that you mention it, it makes perfect sense: she believed that they thought she wasn't good enough, so she killed the babies to get them to text her and say "Oh Lucy, you're such an excellent nurse. You did everything you can. You're amazing and no one could've done better, but it was fate and there was nothing more anyone could do." Dr NN even went as far as saying she's the best nurse (in the region/county?), though his motives are suspect as it's clear from his texts that he's desperate to get into her pants (apologies for sounding so crude about it).
