Lucy Letby Talks Stephanie Davies & Dr. Martyn Pitman

A commentary host covers presentations at the Manchester 19 Nurses event by Stephanie Davies and Dr Martyn Pitman. Davies, a former Cheshire Police coroner's officer turned whistleblower, describes how her three-hour review of the case materials found missing jigsaw pieces rather than evidence of murder. She recounts being searched, suspended, and disciplined after raising concerns, identifying this as a clear example of the confirmation bias that infected the Cheshire Police investigation from the outset. Dr Martyn Pitman, a consultant obstetrician and NHS whistleblower, describes being dismissed after raising maternity safety concerns, with a tribunal ruling against him. He documents a fivefold increase in hypoxic-ischaemic encephalopathy rates following his dismissal, and draws direct parallels between NHS institutional culture and the mechanisms that led to Lucy Letby's conviction.
