KEY POINTS

  • 33-year-old Lucy Letby was convicted on Friday of killing seven babies in the neonatal unit of a hospital in England.

  • A handwritten note found by police officers who searched her home after the arrest read “I killed them on purpose”.

  • Letby will be sentenced on Monday and faces a very long prison term, and possibly a rare full life sentence.

    Idk about everyone else but dam does Lemmy have some of the most brutal posts over and over… between these messed up news stories, brutal cop stories, and the constant politics posts is there even anything else to see? I think I’ve had enough internet tonight.

      Lemmy is full of radicals, both lefties and righties. And so they post a lot of brutal shit. Interesting communities are far and few and no matter what people are saying, all the interesting stuff is still on Reddit, sadly… I just wish people would prioritise their hobbies and interests instead of echo chambers and radicalisation.

    As she did not confess in court, I’m keeping the option open that she could be innocent. We’ve had those cases before.
