OK..
Looking up relatives of the babies who died:
Completely plausible, if at best unwise and at worst unprofessional. The actions of someone who cares and has been affected by the death of am infant on their ward, who has been affected by the grief and pain they witnessed from the relatives.
Someone who came of age with social media...plenty of people her age look up those they've met who've stuck with them, it's really not weird.
She kept handover notes:
These were notes she made during shift, not ones which are kept in a patient's file or records.
Again, not suspicious, completely plausible. Many have said they'd do the same, for various reasons.
Assuming people dispose of such things as soon as they notice them is ignorant. People don't. People are human. They forget. They put things off. Etc.
I can think of various reasons why one would keep such notes tbh, all innocent.
Her "flatness":
I think this is completely ridiculous. People respond in different ways, especially when scared. Astounded women on a message board such as this, with posters regularly discussing rapes & sexual assault in which they didn't fight or scream, can come out with such nonsense.
Many people are good at keeping calm in crises, when scared or upset. Women especially, who are socialised not to make a fuss, draw attention to themselves etc. Nurses especially need to be (a) naturally inclined not to kick off whenever they feel strong emotion but are also (b) trained not to, to follow process and keep calm & rational.
An alternative viewpoint is that Lucy Letby has behaved with dignity throughout.
Lucy Letby is a psychopath. Stop trying to justify her behaviour:
Nothing smacks of "witch hunt" more than this.
There is no evidence that she is a psychopath or sociopath.
Your belief that she is is based on your determination to believe in her guilt despite there being no sound argument that she did anything worse than neglect to destroy some notes or look people up on Facebook.
She didn't talk about the deaths like she should have done. Its weird
Says you. You also first read/heard of these comments in the context of her guilt. Confirmation bias, your opinion is coloured by the emotive subject her being a murderer and is not objective.
She's weird
According to you. I'm sure each of you is an expert on weirdness. Again your belief is coloured by the way her behaviour was initially presented, by a failure to accept that people don't behave as an homogeneous mass even if you personally can't conceive of acting that way should you be in that situation.
You also don't have full context for each example of weirdness. Just snippets of conversation and circumstance, by people who are public pinning their colours to the mast of her guilt.
She confessed her guilt in a note
Putting aside for the moment the fact that she was told to write down every wild thought as part of therapy...are people really saying that they've never panicked, or witness someone panic, in distress and say "it's all my fault", "I've done X", "I am useless /worthless/not good enough" ?
Because i have both done the same and witnessed other people do so when overwhelmed with distressing emotion and when scared.
In fact, its also apparent in many posts I read on these boards.
.
All the arguments people repeatedly put forward to say why they believe she is guilty are entirely subjective - more than that: they are not remotely objective, ignoring all reasoning which doesn't fit with their neat little narrative.
So much of her behaviour which had been used against her is actually indicative of someone deeply empathetic, who remained deeply affected by the suffering she witnessed at work and her sense of responsibility as to why she'd been unable to save the babies on the ward.
