What it is
science4justice.nl is an independent biomedical-science publication founded by Dr Sarrita Adams. Its editorial focus is the application of biomedical-science methodology to contested expert evidence in criminal cases. The Lucy Letby case has been the publication’s longest-running and most-cited body of work.
Role in the post-conviction record
The publication’s October 2023 essay “The insulin question” remains the canonical plain-English summary of why the Letby insulin evidence fails a forensic-evidence standard. It catalogues the Roche Cobas manufacturer guidance, the 2010-vs-2012 Liverpool laboratory protocol change, the published false-positive literature, sample-handling failures, and the physiological implausibility of the Crown’s theory on its own arithmetic.
The essay is cited extensively in subsequent expert reports filed with the Criminal Cases Review Commission, including the May 2025 Joint Expert Witness Insulin Report on Babies F and L. science4justice.nl has continued to publish on the air-embolism criteria, the shift-rota chart methodology, and other strands the post-conviction expert community engages.
