Lucy Letby Miscarriage of Justice - Response to Times Article & Thirlwall Lawyers - Part 1 Child I

Claims that Stenotrophomonas maltophilia infection was ruled out in Child I's case are challenged on the basis that no documentation of such testing exists in the disclosed materials. Pseudomonas bacteria was confirmed present on the neonatal unit, with a documented link to a sewage issue. The hospital conducted virtually no genetic testing on the affected infants despite over seven thousand rare genetic conditions that could explain sudden deterioration in premature neonates. Feeding bags retained from the ward were never sent for independent analysis, a fact sourced from Thirlwall Inquiry document INQ0004330. The amino assay used for insulin testing is described as inadequate for forensic purposes.

They claim Stenotrophomonas maltophilia was ruled out. Where is the test? Show me the test result. There is no document in the disclosed materials that shows this testing was done.

Pseudomonas was confirmed on the neonatal unit. There was a known sewage issue. That is in the records. And nobody thought that was worth investigating further?

There are over seven thousand rare genetic conditions that can cause sudden deterioration in premature neonates. The hospital tested for virtually none of them.

The feeding bags were retained. Document INQ0004330 from the Thirlwall Inquiry confirms this. They were never sent for independent analysis. Never.
