Cheshire Police Rebut Criticism Over Letby Investigation

Cheshire constabulary has issued a strongly worded public statement rejecting criticism from David Davis, the Conservative former cabinet minister, who called in parliament for a review of the Lucy Letby case. Davis had previously stated that Letby had suffered a "clear miscarriage of justice" and accused the police force of making "egregious failures" in their investigation into the deaths of babies at the Countess of Chester hospital.

The police force firmly refutes Davis' allegations, defending their approach and adherence to guidelines and best practices, including in the appointment of expert witnesses. They maintain that their investigation was thorough and comprehensive, focused on uncovering the truth rather than simply suspecting Letby.
