Letby Accusers Must Face Justice of Their Own After Murder Claims Proved Totally False

When babies started dying did Brearey and Jayaram create a fake story about an undetected serial killer just to save their own careers?


A panel of the worlds leading experts on infant death has concluded that Lucy Letby is innocent. World-renowned neonatologist Dr Shoo Lee who lead the panel made it crystal clear, stating. “We did not find any murders”. Dr Shoo Lee and his colleagues confirmed what many had suspected all along, that no murders ever took place, and that the babies more likely died from utter incompetence.


This new information sheds a spotlight on the two consultant doctors who pointed the finger at Lucy Letby in the first place. There has long been suspicion amongst both some experts as well as investigators that Dr Stephen Brearey and Dr. Ravi Jayaram had used the story of Letby being a murderer to detract from their own culpabilities in the deaths of babies under their care.


Dr. Stephen Brearey was the lead consultant on the neonatal unit at the Countess of Chester Hospital and ultimately responsible for the babies wellbeing. When babies began dying on the ward in greater numbers than expected Brearey refused to accept any responsibility over the deaths and instead suggested to hospital managers that there could be an undetected murderer on the ward. By June of 2015 Brearey had developed his theory further, deciding that Lucy Letby was the murderer.


Dr. Ravi Jayaram, a consultant paediatrician at the hospital, also pointed the finger at Letby. Jayaram had also come under scrutiny from hospital managers and there still remains questions over his involvement in at least two of the babies deaths, due to serious errors he made whilst treating them. However, after Letby was arrested and subsequently charged, the case against Jayaram magically disappeared.

These two doctors appear to have used Lucy Letby as a scapegoat. It seems highly unlikely that they were not in full knowledge about what they were doing. They appeared more than happy to throw Lucy Letby under the bus to save their own careers An intentional act of unbelievable callousness.

Narcissism.

Within the medical world it is a well known phenomenon that doctors, particularly Consultants are prone to Narcissism. Some experts suggest that this narcissism stems from the power some doctors feel they have. Psychologists often report senior doctors showing an inflated sense of their own importance, seeing themselves as having god-like abilities over life and death.


Grandiosity

Wanting to maintain the charade of their own infallibility Brearey and Jayaram would have felt under increasing pressure to explain exactly why babies were dying in their care. Admission that they may have been directly or indirectly responsible for the babies deaths through their own incompetence would shatter that illusion both in their own minds and in the minds of their family, friends and colleagues.


The doctors will have also enjoyed the position of authority they held. This allowed them to put the blame on Lucy Letby even though the idea of an undetected serial killer is far more fantastical than much simpler explanations. It is this 'argument from authority' that likely convinced police that the babies were murdered in the first place.


Lucy Letby supporters are now calling for Dr. Brearey and Dr. Jayaram to face their own justice. If they intentionally accused the nurse of multiple murders to cover up their own incompetence then these two should go to prison for that callous act.
