1. OMG!! I've listened to some Podcasts about this case

I first heard about it from The New Yorker article, (long article linked below) then I went on a deep dive. I believe 99.99% that she's guilty.

I get that the statisticians are questioning the chart showing that Lucy was on duty at the times of the deaths. But, coincidence or Occam's Razor? (See chart link from Reddit below)

Reading about Baby E one of the twins and the mothers testimony was pretty devastating. Also reading about the triplets, Baby O and Baby P were killed and the parents insisted on moving the surviving baby to another hospital. Also Baby F and Baby I poisoned with insulin and both times only Lucy and one other nurse were on duty.

I dunno.... could there be so many coincidences? there seems to be enough evidence. She did things like going into work when she wasn't scheduled, took tons of paperwork home that she shouldn't have. Lots of questionable behavior.

And 2 juries have now found her guilty.

Lots of info here too:

Also, you can listen to transcripts of testimony on this YouTube channel: (like I said, I went on a deep dive.)

There's a Reddit dedicated to the case with lots of transcript images and exhibits. Look at this chart showing who was on duty each time there was a death:
