Well this is the thing, apparently wasn't back to normal after she left there. There appear to be stats showing excess neonatal deaths continuing after she left.
Even before she left, discounting the deaths she was convicted for, there were still excess deaths that she didn't and couldn't have committed.
This case is looking more and more like an egregious miscarriage of justice. Her defence team were poor, didn't put up any expert witnesses on her behalf, accepted insulin had been added to the IV bags without challenge, didn't bring in any expert witnesses to refute that, forcing their client to accept it on the stand. didn't refute the expert testimony given by the doctor regarding air embolisms which may have been out of date or not appropriate for the cases in this trial, and if what I'm hearing is correct left out evidence that stood a good chance of if not exonerating her, giving sufficient cause for doubt. Unfortunately the Jury could only go with what they had, which was nearly all the so-called 'expert' info coming from one side!
I will say the quality of investigative journalism on this country is piss poor, it has to now be at the lowest point ever and the tabloids all but ensured there would be bias in this case. I find it really disturbing. We are also in a time when the police are under pressure and are bending over backwards to appear effective and like they are solving major crimes. And funding for defence cases is thin on the ground, it doesn't add to a conducive atmosphere for justice.
We don't hang people or have the death penalty anymore, but there are some things worse than death. A reputation as a serial baby killer is one of those things, because even when you die your name is mud and the stigma attaches to your family and loved ones for generations. To lock someone up on the basis of mostly circumstantial evidence for a crime this serious, demands at the very least another and closer look.
