The inquiry found serious safeguarding failures at the Countess of Chester Hospital and concluded that the failure to alert police earlier to concerns about Letby's conduct had devastating consequences for children and their families. Professor David Wilson and Martin Frizell are joined by Christopher Morris, author of a new book examining the Lucy Letby case. They discuss the findings of the inquiry, the ongoing investigation into potential corporate manslaughter and gross negligence at the hospital, and the growing debate surrounding the safety of Letby's convictions. While the Thirlwall Inquiry made clear its position that Letby is responsible for the crimes for which she was convicted, Morris's book brings together experts who question whether her convictions are safe and explores the possibility of the case returning to the Court of Appeal.

Professor David Wilson and Martin Frizell examine the case, the arguments surrounding Clancy's mental state and the extraordinary circumstances that left the jury unable to agree.

    How a brutal murder unfolded in a quiet Cornish village | James Desborough

    This week, we're discussing the case of James Desborough, the killer whose crimes in Cornwall earned him comparisons to the fictional serial killer Dexter Morgan. Desborough murdered two men at his isolated shack in the Cornish woods before later killing his own cellmate while serving time in prison. We look at Desborough's three murders, what happened at the secluded woodland shack, and how a man already convicted of killing twice was able to murder again behind bars. We also explore the comparisons between Desborough and Dexter, and what we actually know about the man dubbed the "Cornwall Killer". Hit subscribe so you don't miss any updates.

    What Happens When Britain’s Prisons are Full? Do We Offer Early Release to Murderers and Rapists?

    Britain’s prisons are full — and thousands of offenders are being released earlier than expected to create space. But who is being let out, how much of their sentence are they actually serving, and what happens when prison capacity begins to dictate justice? In this episode, we examine Britain’s overcrowding crisis and the emergency early-release schemes introduced by the government. We also look in detail at the devastating killing of PC Andrew Harper, the sentences handed to the three men responsible, his widow Lissie Harper’s campaign for Harper’s Law, and why the possibility of early release has caused renewed outrage. Are victims’ families being failed? Is the public being placed at risk? And does a prison sentence still mean what people believe it does? Because when Britain runs out of cells, someone has to be released. Hit subscribe so you don't miss any updates.

His partner, John McGowan Fazakerley, was sentenced to 25 years after being convicted of causing or allowing the death of a child. The verdicts brought to a close one of the most disturbing child abuse cases in recent years. Preston Davey was a vulnerable young boy who should have been protected by the adults responsible for his care. Instead, prosecutors argued that he was subjected to horrific abuse that ultimately cost him his life. As details of the investigation emerged, the case sparked widespread outrage and raised serious questions about how such a tragedy could have happened.

    Pure Evil: Killer of Henry Nowak and his Shameful Family

    Hit subscribe so you don't miss any updates. Check out our Patreon for bonus weekly episodes and access to live recordings, plus monthly newsletters! ⁠⁠Click here to join. The heartbreaking police bodycam footage of teenager Henry Nowak — arrested, handcuffed, and slowly dying from stab wounds — has shocked Britain. Henry was just 18 years old when he was murdered in Southampton in December last year. The case has raised serious questions about policing, justice, and the actions of those around killer Vicrum Digwa, who was sentenced to life with a minimum term of 21 years. At the centre of this story are two families: the Nowaks, who spoke with dignity and grief after sentencing, and the Digwa family, whose actions after the stabbing became a major part of the case. Digwa’s mother now awaits sentencing after hiding the murder weapon, while questions remain over what was said and done by others close to the killer. This was a fast-developing story, and we have re-recorded parts of the episode to bring you the latest developments and our thoughts. Was this simply a case of poor policing? Did assumptions made at the scene cost Henry vital time? And what happens next in a case that has already sparked fierce debate about justice, race, and accountability? But above all, this is the story of Henry Nowak — an 18-year-old whose life was stolen, and whose family are left grieving a son who was far too young to be forgotten.

    Special Episode: Should Teen Rapists Be Locked Up?

    There's an outcry over a judge's decision to allow a gang of teenage rapists, aged 14 and 15, to walk free after they were convicted of 11 rapes on two girls in Fordingbridge in Hampshire. The Attorney General is now considering whether the sentencing was unduly lenient by the trial judge who said he had the welfare of the rapists uppermost in his mind as they were considered children. The court heard they used a knife, laughed and filmed their crimes and shared the video on social media. In this special episode we examine claims the rapists were suffering from ADHD and other cognitive disorders, why that matters and why a custodial sentence was not considered suitable for a crime that robbed two young girls of their innocence.
