Though talking about people coming home with mystery stains on their clothes, one of the best examples of 'careful ignoral' is when contemplating one's significant other's fidelity.
The curious feature of the situation is that his/her being unfaithful is not necessarily a game-changer in itself, but knowing they actually are is. Every individual is aware of the fact that most people in our society are non-monogamous at some time or other in their monogamous relationships so it is not something that can be put into psychic deep freeze.
You'd just rather not know in your own specific application of the general statistic. Not that I, specifically, have had sufficient number of lengthy monogamous relationships to be an expert on the subject.

If Dr Ravi Jayaram had witnessed what he thought was a criminal act by Lucy Letby, (not raising the alarm) then subsequently memoed staff, that she did raise the alarm, he has arguably it appears in effect "washed the clothes"
This is arguably a criminal offence on his part. It is irrelevant that a police investigation was not going at the time of his memo. If the Doctor had reason to beleive, at the time of the memo, that a subsequent police investigation of Letby would take place, (and the evidence is that, he later encouraged the police to investigate), it is still potentially a serious criminal case, and aslo a legal case against the hospital.
Thirwell will need to address this, as the purpose of the enquiry is to stop future serial killers, (It presupposes Letbys guilt) and allowing doctors to provide cover for a serial killers actions cannot be right.
Dr Ravi Jayaram, has not commented on this latest memo so their might be a simple explanation for all this. Innocence until proven guilty has to be always assumed.

I just noticed this thread, I don't know how long after that last post of Wiley's, but it gave me a start.
What, if anything, has happened? |
The poor women is still in prison and the wheels of British justice do not seem to be so much grinding slowly, as being quite seized up. I presume we are waiting for the Report from the Enquiry--I can't even remember what the Enquiry was into it. Something to do with the Letby case
but not directly about her guilt/innocence. |
If I know anything about public enquiries, it will be a year or more before it is published and it will be noncommittal--no, silent--about Letby's guilt/innocence. And the regular NHS hospital scandals, with their consequential alarums and reports, seem to have dried up. I wonder why. They were coming thick and fast until quite recently.
It seems macabre to hope for one just on the offchance it might save one forlorn nurse. |
But that's the executive branch of the state. The judicial arm, as far as I know, is not even engaged at present. Leastways I'm not aware there are any 'ongoing proceedings'. Maybe someone's had the bright idea of going to the European Court of Justice or somesuch.
It seems a Mr Bates vs The Post Office type TV blockbuster is Lucy Letby's last hope. Except the MSTV channels are not making them anymore thanks to Netflix. Oh well, it's only one person and a 'there but for the Grace of God' situation. Mustn't grumble.

The enquiry into Nottingham University Hospital's maternity services has issued a preliminary report. There is, on average, one untoward death every four months, though 1.7 million cases are being sorted through for examples of 'corporate manslaughter'.
I had no idea there were so many Lucy Letbies at large in my old alma mater.
