Lucy Letby Case #45

[OGJessicaFletcher]

I really do hope they are not on a lunch break, I’m sat here waiting for the Dr to call my little one decided today was the day she has a suspicious rash!
They are unsure if it’s contagious .
Now she will have no dinner this evening either.

I googled it. Why did i google it?! You warned us and i still did it

Me too. It's the jury's fault for taking so long.

Seeing as we’ve all coped really well with the jury going out a bit longer than expected to do their labelling, bodes really well for the actual deliberations

I've just panicked and decluttered my kitchen, my house is going to be immaculate by the end of the week.

*Remembers I have a full time job that I should really be cracking on with*

The judge apologises for the delay, saying the process took longer than anticipated.
He says in relation to the lists the prosecution submitted, that the defence say they did not establish patterns, and there were dissimilarities.
He says there will be two additions to the evidence bundle for the jurors - they had already been heard in evidence.
Benjamin Myers KC says the two additions to the bundle are photographs of Letby's house, and a schedule of social media material which had been served.
The judge says an iPad has been linked to a large screen in the room, so evidence for group discussion can be presented on a big screen, for convenience. There will be spare iPads [which contain the evidence stored electronically in the case].

[Stiltoncheese]

Do you think they were really delayed or has Mark just fudged the timings to cover his absence

I drove past a van with BNE on it on school run this morning. Taking that as a good omen.

So weepy and tense today. So close to justice for those angels.

So intrigued to see how the next few days go. Out of interest, is there a finish time for deliberations each day? Like if they haven’t finished by 5pm (for example) it rolls on to the next day I’m assuming? I’m just trying to work out a time frame for the next few days where I need to keep an eye on my phone vs when I can know it’s the end of their day and not worry about it until the next day haha. The FB wankers saying 4 weeks?! Surely bleeping not. I wonder if the judge will give a limit and how long it would be if he did? So many questions

I feel really tense for them going to the deliberation room. I hope it's a huge relief for them to be able to talk to one another about it at last. The room itself can be quite an experience though - I've been in one (on a jury obvs) and it was a really intense environment. Your stuff locked away, nothing else to do but discuss, guard at the door etc.

He says the deliberations are confidential to the jury, and there is no disclosure of them to anyone, including any court bailiffs when they are present in the deliberation room.
He says the jurors should respect each others' opinions, everyone should be listened to, and no-one should feel pressured, including on time.
Deliberation times will be between 10.30am-4pm. At 4pm, the jury will be brought back each day and then sent home. When they are not deliberating, the deliberation room will remain locked.
The judge urges jurors to not, under any circumstances, discuss the case with anyone outside of all 12 jurors in the deliberation. They are not allowed to discuss the case with each other in the absence of any juror.
Two five-minute 'smoke breaks' will take place during each day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. For each of those breaks, a bailiff will entertainer the juror or jurors outside and remain with them. Another bailiff will remain with the jurors inside the deliberation room.
A man or woman will be selected as the jury foreman. That person can be changed in advance of a verdict for any reason, the judge advises.
Any questions on the case are to be written on a note, not communicated verbally to the court bailiff, for presentation to the court.

I'll be surprised if there aren't any questions from the jury due to it being such a complex case with so many charges. Will this get reported ie: what the question is and the response?
