That's sad for the families. That it's gone on for so long, I mean. Sure the estimated end date was originally April.As long as it takes. Prosecution has lasted 6 months so it's anyone's guess.
Just so intrigued by how it can at all come across well to say yeah I illegally took and kept hundreds of handovers that I told police I didn’t have and yeah I Facebook stalked tons of people but dunno why and just don’t mention how I linked babies from this case to each other despite some being poisoned, some dying and some surviving so presumably no link at that time.oh yes. I wonder how long BM will question her for. I imagine it will be brief so she doesn’t trip herself up. Day at the most.
They'll still cross examine any defence witnesses they want, including LL, they just won't present their own evidence.Sorry if this is a stupid question but if the prosecution have concluded their case does that mean they won't be x examining her when she takes the stand?
Another big contradiction is how she's downplayed her nursing skills and claimed to be the most qualified nurse on the ward.Just so intrigued by how it can at all come across well to say yeah I illegally took and kept hundreds of handovers that I told police I didn’t have and yeah I Facebook stalked tons of people but dunno why and just don’t mention how I linked babies from this case to each other despite some being poisoned, some dying and some surviving so presumably no link at that time.
Ah ok so you’re saying you’re a bleeping weirdo but just not thaaaaat much of a bleeping weirdo. It’s just really not a good look![]()
Questioning from your own barrister is called examination in chief, they can’t ask leading questions and essentially they talk about what has happened factually (their version of events) with their counsel guiding them through it, with questions that need an explanation. The other side will then cross examine using leading questions (think more yes/no type answers). Once you’ve been cross examined your barrister can then re examine you if they want to clarify any additional points raised during cross examinationoh yes. I wonder how long BM will question her for. I imagine it will be brief so she doesn’t trip herself up. Day at the most.

I can’t imagine they’ll ask her any of that though, that’ll be what she’s cross examined on. If her own barrister trips her up they’ve done something very wrong! You don’t aim to ask anything during examination in chief that will confuse or trip up your own witnessJust so intrigued by how it can at all come across well to say yeah I illegally took and kept hundreds of handovers that I told police I didn’t have and yeah I Facebook stalked tons of people but dunno why and just don’t mention how I linked babies from this case to each other despite some being poisoned, some dying and some surviving so presumably no link at that time.

The defence have essentially had that as their normalisation of her behaviour though, he raised the point that she took 257 and referenced that that meant lots weren’t babies in the case. And about the searches he raised with the digital analysis person that she searched loads of people. So I very much doubt it’ll play out how I phrased it thereI can’t imagine they’ll ask her any of that though, that’ll be what she’s cross examined on. If her own barrister trips her up they’ve done something very wrong! You don’t aim to ask anything during examination in chief that will confuse or trip up your own witness
Do you believe she's guilty at this point Lilyrose? Or are you waiting to hear it all?I can’t imagine they’ll ask her any of that though, that’ll be what she’s cross examined on.

Recap: Lucy Letby trial, Tuesday, May 2 - defence begins
The trial of Lucy Letby, who denies murdering seven babies at the Countess of Chester Hospital neonatal unit and attempting to murder 10 more, is…www.chesterstandard.co.uk
Haha in that case they might ask her about it, but in a way that supports their case. E.g accidentally took handover sheets, but not relating to this case, that she’s searched loads of people because she wants to see how they’re getting on. The problem with asking about that though is doing it in a way that doesn’t trip her up, unless she’s happy to say “I was just being nosy” in which case no doubt the prosecution will ask why she didn’t say that in police interview. It’ll be a bit of a minefield for sure!The defence have essentially had that as their normalisation of her behaviour though, he raised the point that she took 257 and referenced that that meant lots weren’t babies in the case. And about the searches he raised with the digital analysis person that she searched loads of people. So I very much doubt it’ll play out how I phrased it therebut that has kinda been the defence of those behaviours all the way along.
