Frank I have always been in favour of the death penalty,my points are with imprisonment there is always a chance of early release or escape which enables the perpetrator to re-offend and create further victims,a piece of rope is cheap,final and removes a worry from the populace
Think for a second, would footage at a resolution detailed enough for seeing what exactly was being done but able to be stored for years ‘just in case’. I know storage is cheap but it’s not free. No one would know it would be needed for years, compared to days at most for violent crime. Hell the police have twice come to my door for CCTV a few days after an incident somewhere and the suspects have driven by my house. Days… not years.
Alas on this one I think you are wrong. On not listening to Doctor’s concerns I think you’ll find the hospital was already in trouble over basic patient safety reporting before. https://www.cheshire-live.co.uk/news/health/countess-chester-ellesmere-port-hospitals-7391125. Another point is that it is reported that one doctor who talked about being a whistleblower admitted under cross examination he only raised concerns after the police investigation was underway in 2018. The doctors on the unit were/are also suspects, don’t you pause for a moment to consider and question the incentives acting on these people as it does in other things you write about?
I think this will ultimately be shown, like the case of Lucia de Berk, to be a miscarriage of justice. Dr Evans, a key expert witness, was not an actual expert for example and there are various qualified, and referenced statements available, why for example insulin can be found in higher concentrations in deceased neonates with sepsis (which can lead to elevated insulin levels due to reduced insulin sensitivity).
And even worse the police looked for a statistical link to deaths in the shift pattern and then appears to have made the evidence fit the crime rather than investigating properly (sort of a ‘who was associated with most deaths when they were on duty, let’s blame them’ approach)

Oh, and they had a webcam…. So there were images but none of the crime as I assume they wouldn’t be storing footage for years and years.

Why did the NHS managers think it acceptable to instruct doctors ‘not to make a fuss’ about babies dying suspiciously?
What's the death of a few babies when weighed against the possibility of losing their 'careers?'
