The senior officer who led the Lucy Letby investigation has hit out at the growing number of supporters who continue to question her guilt – despite one of the most extensive and damning trials in British history.
Detective Superintendent Paul Hughes of Cheshire Constabulary didn’t hold back, branding many of the claims made online as “ill-informed” and “insensitive”. He stressed that investigators “left no stone unturned” and said the case had been subject to “rigorous and fair” scrutiny in both court and appeal.
