Nurse found guilty of murdering seven newborn babies at UK hospital - Lemmy.world

KEY POINTS - 33-year-old Lucy Letby was convicted on Friday of killing seven babies in the neonatal unit of a hospital in England. - A handwritten note found by police officers who searched her home after the arrest read “I killed them on purpose”. - Letby will be sentenced on Monday and faces a very long prison term, and possibly a rare full life sentence.

Hope she gets some much needed mental health support in prison
Nothing quiets the mind like a lethal injection.

I’m not some huge fan of the death penalty. There’s a hefty line, but this is WAY past it.
And then 10 years later it comes out the justice system failed and she did infact not do anything. What do you say then?
Wait I’m confused are there actually people who think she didn’t do this? I looked at the evidence it’s pretty f****** clear she killed like a bunch of babies. Like how much of a psychopath do you have to be to kill a baby not only a baby a preemies. The most defenseless of defenseless, like for real or are you just like joshing and having a laugh, where are you for real?

It’s not this specific case that suggests why killing prisoners is wrong, but others where it’s not so cut and dry…

A man was recently pardoned after years in prison for a crime he did not commit - he was on a whole life sentence.

If killing someone for their crimes becomes legal, this man may have been killed for a crime he didn’t commit and would never have seen a free day again.

By maintaing the system currently in place where we don’t kill prisoners, there is the opportunities for miscarriages of justice to be somewhat rectified.

Can’t bring a man back from the dead, but we can give him a million pounds for the false imprisonment and his freedom for the rest of his days.

I never said she needs to be put to death or advocated for such, I just hope she never gets out so that she can harm another person. Anyway, I assumed they didn’t have the death penalty in Britain.
My bad, I made an assumption based on the earlier stance in the thread of this woman getting the death penalty.
All good.
