Main contribution

Co-filed (with Roger Norwich) a formal GMC complaint regarding the prosecution expert evidence of Dr Dewi Evans, on the basis that the trial expert evidence did not meet professional standards.

Key claim

The theories proposed in court were not plausible and the prosecution was full of medical inaccuracies. While she cannot assert Letby's innocence, she sees 'no proof of guilt'.
