He says the emotional reaction to such serious, upsetting and sensitive charges "is to convict".
He says the jury have to be "very careful" on the conclusions reached.
He says the prosecution "characterise" Letby, which "they are entitled to do", and he says the jury "must be alert to that".
He says the language of 'attack', 'gaslighting', 'sabotage', 'you're enjoying yourself', 'your favourite way of killing', playing god', 'calculating', 'manipulative' was sometimes "on the thinnest of evidence...or no evidence at all".
Mr Myers says Letby was in 2015: "She's a 25-year-old band 5 nurse, an excellent one - that's what she was, looking after dozens, if not hundreds of babies...day after day."
He says "you saw the real person" in her evidence and cross-examination, that she could "remember pieces of evidence" in the years she has been waiting for her trial: "There's little else to do in prison, isn't there?"
She was also "scared, anxious and struggling to hold it all together".
