NEW: California attorney Julie Hamill corrects CNN's Brianna Keilar after she tried calling biological male track athlete AB Hernandez a girl.
Keilar was very confused during the interview & struggled to keep up.
Keilar: What would make this fair for her to compete?
Hamill: Who is her?
Keilar: AB.
Hamill: Okay. AB Hernandez is a male who identifies as a female. What would be fair is to have Hernandez competing in the male category.
@hamill_law sounds like she's talking to someone in middle school.

They do not mention Thirlwall's extraordinary recommendation *not* to encourage the use of expensive LC-MS/MS to investigate possible insulin poisoning because doctors would only be confused if it gave different outcomes from quick and cheap immunoassay!

The Saturday Grand Rounds allowed surgeons from the community to attend…I see no evidence that weekday Grand Rounds produce better surgeons.

He asks me about PT. In the notes
He asks about MRI. In the notes
He asks then why would I want an epidural injection
I don’t… I want an SI injection

Pay hospitals more if “malnutrition” is in the chart.
Hospitals hire teams to comb through patient charts and harass doctors into putting “malnutrition” in the clinical notes.
More people are suddenly dying with “malnutrition” as a diagnosis.
This is why most research based on administrative codes is total garbage.

A husband and wife with four kids will spend $3-4,000 and more per month on medical insurance now, and it buys nothing but the right to pay more when you actually use it. This is an outrage. More outrageous, there is hardly any political talk about this fixing this problem even though the fix is readily at hand. Unsustainable.

There is evidence of a discrepancy in Jayaram’s testimony. He said, under oath, that he was not (at all) called by Letby. His email suggests that he was called by Letby, by his own words.
Those two disparate realities create very different scenarios for a juror to consider in terms of a) whether Letby was actually up to no good and b) whether Jayaram is a reliable witness.
I didn’t say that Jayaram is an outright liar, I said that he is likely a dishonest individual, and I suspect that he has been very selective with the truth.
Anton retweeted
The new email does say something different. Remember that the entire case against Letby for Child K hung on the truthfulness of Jayaram. He was asked a pointed question, "Were you called?" and he gave the assured response "No. Not at all".
That illustrated a scene for the jury where Jayaram just happened to be walking by and caught Letby "virtually (i.e. not really) red-handed", and up to no good. Well, just standing there anyway.
But if the reality was that she had called for Jayaram, and she was waiting for him to come and attend to the infant, then that paints a whole different scenario. The jury were almost certainly misled by his testimony during the trial.
Jayaram is an unreliable witness. And likely a dishonest individual.
Anton retweeted
No, it wasn't. Thirlwall had the email, and buried it. She never made it public. Her lawyers never questioned Jayaram about it.
The only reason the public knows about the email is because David Rose and myself revealed its existence in this article: unherd.com/newsroom/hidden-e…

I agree. There are many areas of evidential weakness on this case. But, as a doctor, what I think is incredibly worrying is how implausible most of the medical evidence put forward by the police, CPS, prosecution and so called expert witnesses was. To anyone who has practised medicine for any reasonable length of time, most of it just doesn’t hold water and, to be honest, reflects a complete lack of understanding of the practise of medicine and of physiology, pathophysiology and basic medical sciences.

This isn't about new science; it's about a corrupted trial process. Because the judge was misled, the legal directions given to the jury were void ab initio. The CCRC doesn't need years of research,they just need to trigger Section 13(2) now.

The reality? The laboratory's own explicit warning notes state the exact opposite: the test is a screener, prone to cross-reactivity, and must not be used as standalone forensic proof. By concealing this, the Crown fundamentally misled the bench from day one.
Anton retweeted
To secure a conviction, the Crown stood up and told the court that the insulin immunoassay results were definitive, flawless forensic proof of exogenous poisoning. They presented a diagnostic screening tool as an absolute, incontrovertible forensic certainty.

Its insane that modern healthcare requires that a physician stop what they’re doing, find a slow, clunky computer, and then spend a few minutes and about 50 clicks to put in an order so an over the counter medication can be administered by another licensed healthcare professional

This does sound like a better demonstration than the one given by Dr Evans. However, it involves someone opening two doors in the incubator and putting their hands inside. How is Lucy Letby supposed to have done this without other people in the room noticing?
