he’s just butt hurt Myers didn’t call him up. His expert opinion clearly wasn’t robust enough.
Dr Hall is in no position to say that she had an unfair trial, the court of appeal judgement confirmed that she did so that is not up for debate. He clearly doesnt have any understanding of the law. There was a reason BM didnt chose not to call him. He said that some of the causes of death were hard to explain and he couldn't rule of air embolism as a cause of death in many. That ìs not a great deference for Letby.
It's disgusting that the babies and families are being treated a pawns in this and journalists have completely ignored and disrespected their pleas to stop spreading misinformation and conspiracy theories.

They are going to have to be careful with how much they complain about this because it might undermine every argument they try to make, particularly sharp shooter fallacy and evidence of harm.
She is vile. She keeps writing deliberately misleading articles like this. Very irresponsible considering how much abuse the doctors have received from conspiracy theorists.
Indeed she is. She's punting absolute nonsense that a nobody on the internet like me is able to debunk in two minutes with a few screenshots from the Chester Standard live feed.
There was a barrister on the Trial podcast that dealt with this. According to him, one reason for not calling an expert witness is that what they are going to say is potentially detrimental to the defence case - particularly under cross examination.
Hopefully not being around babies anymore put an end to her impulses, unless she really did go into nursing just to do what she did (personally I don't think so but who knows) I absolutely think she just couldn't help herself whilst on the unit so laying low would've been out of the question. If she could control herself that much she probably wouldn't have done any of it. She was totally addicted to the attention and drama of it all. I mean she said she loved her job in the police interview which is a bit telling considering all the trauma of having so many babies die and collapse unexpectedly on her shifts! Still can't get over her being moved to the risk and patient safety office.
And those two barristers on the podcast both agreed they themselves had had cases where they had not called witnesses because it wouldn't have helped their cases. They concluded by saying that was the probable explanation for Myers not calling a medical witness.
Yes Ben Myers knew their evidence would not stand up under cross-examination. It's the only plausible reason they weren't called.
My reckoning is that even the defence experts couldn't justify a more likely natural explanation for each episode of death or harm, in babies that were otherwise mostly doing OK. So they'd have been torn apart by the prosecution.
Seems like Dr Hall in particular was desperate to share his expertise with the Court but was kept on a short leash by Ben Myers - who knew the disaster that awaited.
