Same old story. Concerns raised repeatedly, nothing done until it's too late.
I think it was the case that Letby was gaslighting several colleagues and as such had a great deal of support among many of her peers and superiors and also hindsight makes things seems more clear cut.

I think it was 6 of the deaths had post mortems at the time and a natural cause of death was recorded. Likewise the 'strange rash' and skin mottling was absent from the contemporary medical notes and was only deemed significant when doctors and consultants reexamined some of the cases later. That was a big part of the defence case, that it was added to give more weight to the air embolism theory.

Of course when concerns were raised about an individual at a time when so many deaths and collapses were occuring it is shocking that no action at all was taken for the best part of 2 years and it really is unforgivable but at the time those raising concerns were ultimately disputing what experienced pathologists were recording.
