Cheshire Police and the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) are facing criticism for their handling of the Lucy Letby case, with doubts emerging about her guilt. Peter Hitchens questions why the police and CPS are refusing to disclose information about a secret briefing given to selected media before Letby's trial. Hitchens argues that if the briefing was harmless, there would be no reason to keep it secret or refuse to provide a recording of it. He also highlights the use of non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) at the briefing, despite initial denials from the police and CPS. Hitchens suggests that the refusal to disclose information and the withholding of key evidence in the case are unfair and unjust.
