Wow! It's not easy to steal medication, everywhere I've worked has had regular pharmacy stock checks, you'd notice an entire course of antibiotics missing! Weve never even been able to sneak a couple of paracetamol when we've had a headache. Surely those working with her must have suspicions.
It’s very interesting to hear how other hospitals deal with things like this tbh, where I worked it was a lot more relaxed and depended which ward, how much you were stealing, how often you did it and what it was that you were taking tbh. A packet of antibiotics going missing or a couple of packets of paracetamol wouldn’t raise suspicion at all but we had a nurse who was stealing dihydrocodeine and that led to police being called in the end.

Exactly, I always have nurofen lysine for period pain in my work backpack &paracetamol for headache.
I wouldn't dare to take medication from work even with the worst pain so that's why I always have my own.

Just wondering, if defence don’t agree with what a parent says they witnessed (for example woman who walked in on baby bleeding) would they then have to take the stand ?

I’m unsure but the evidence put forward today was agreed with by both the prosecution and the defence as they said the defence had added extra information.

Ooh good question. I think the events for the baby who was found bleeding will be disputed...

I can see how this is going to last 6 months now, today been very slow.
Although maybe we are not hearing everything from the reporters

The double jeopardy law has been scraped now. She could, theoretically, be charged with these again, if found not guilty and new evidence came to light.
I did wonder whether maybe they had these charges as the first group and the operation hummingbird would put together another set maybe on a different ward or hospital? So as to protect themselves that if she is found NG, but they truly believe she is guilty, they can have another go at a different set of charges?

That's what I'd do if I genuinely whole heartedly believed someone was guilty, have a back up in case they got away with the first one.

Legal people, how does this work? Would these charges be grouped together and charged collectively as one because of the fact they were all in the same place? I'm not sure how multiple charges work?

Just horrific that there's potentiallt even more families unknowingly going to have to go through this once operation hummingbird starts (whether it's LL or not).

yes I thought that too, if it is true that would be an awful thing for that babies mam to have to go through I wouldn’t be able to keep quiet. I think someone posted on this thread and said they had worked in NICU and never experienced blood as described. I also read she failed to put in the notes about the massive amount of blood loss, which you would think would be significant.

Where did you hear all this about Operation Hummingbird?

These murders/attempted murders all happened in fairly quick succession, surely any from earlier would have too so would fit into this pattern?
And there weren’t many deaths there in previous years anyway.

someone found the job advert on a previous thread. Think it was a detective to join for 3 years. I think people are saying there could be more that were committed at an earlier date over a longer length of time and when she realised she got away with it she then got hooked.

Links to the police website and the detective vacancy. It's still ongoing to 2025.

Am struggling with the mottled skin, looking into it suggests it's upto 50% of prem babies will have varying degrees of it.

Causes can include- infection, circulation, heart issues and temperature. Also can be seen in divers with decompression sickness, so air embolism.

Can any nicu nurses share their experiences of it?
Interesting that temp is one of the causes and the baby mentioned today there was no record of temp on their med notes

Oh wow. Can we assume then that they have good reason to believe there is a lot more to be investigated?

It’s been quite a slow reporting day so I’ve been able to add a prosecution evidence section to child a and b and will add key evidence. So I’ve put up the family statements and what we have so far for the timeline.

It actually doesn’t take very long to do now the bulk of the wiki is already set up as it’s just copy and paste. And I’m reading the updates daily at the moment anyway.

Also with being twins there is sone crossover so the family statements are the same in both child a and b sections.

Thank you I appreciate this. I’m on nights so finding it hard to keep up x

I’ve noticed when doing the wiki that the prosecution have more than two medical experts. I don’t know all of their roles and they aren’t all mentioned for each baby. This feels quite extensive though.

Dr Dewi Evans
Dr Sandie Bohin
Professor Peter Hindmarsh
Professor Sally Kinsey
Dr Andreas Marnerides, (reviewing pathologist)

Sounds very self entitled know it all. Deffo needs reporting
I agree this person does need reporting to the NMC. Absolutely shocking how some people can abuse their ‘power’ entitled doesn’t even cut it!

Medical evidence, hard to get a handle on if you have no experience. It will take a dedicated, conscientious juror to grasp fully imo. The trial is so emotive, and we by nature are emotional beings. It truly calls for open mindedness and objectivity. A big ask.
