He said, referring to the original charge of harming 17 children: “Our conclusion was that there was no medical evidence that supports bad violations that caused an injury in any of the 17 cases in the trial.”

Her lawyer Mark McDonald said the new medical results from international experts “demolished” the case against her.
Li, who participated in composing an academic paper about the air blockage of children who were used during the Long Prosecution of Letby, told Tuesday that “the evidence was wrong.”

McDonald, who became a Legeby lawyer last year, said her original legal team failed to produce any of their medical experts during the trial, which means that “all you have is evidence of prosecutors.”
This is a new guide. This is a new guide. It is a convincing evidence due to the nature of the people who provide this evidence, and the jury has not heard. “
A committee included specialists from Britain, Canada, Germany, Japan, Sweden and the United States. On Tuesday, he told me that they intend to launch their results, regardless of whether they are favorable or favorable to letby.
