I tend to agree. And I think the question asked upthread by
@Bakers regarding whether these babies' deaths would still be considered murders if LL is found NG raises some interesting points too. (To clarify, I don't mean from a police crime clean-up perspective so much as just a factual one.)
It just seems to me that the identification of these deaths as suspicious depends, by definition, on the identification of a pattern that the CPS sees as having been caused by LL. If the jury ends up rejecting that interpretation of events, it might well follow that there was never any such pattern, i.e. that it was a statistical artefact or misinterpretation. (Though it might also be that there was, just not one caused by LL and/or not deliberately.)
I'm also curious to know whether the jury will only weigh up guilt/innocence in relation to each individual child, or whether they would also be able to convict her based on the aggregated evidence represented by such a pattern (e.g. being the only staff member whose presence was common to all cases, etc). I would have difficulty with the latter tbh, as the use of a pattern to identify a person worth investigating, and then to charge them because their activities fit in with the pattern is inherently problematic imo.
But of course I'm getting well ahead of the evidence. I just hope the reporting restrictions don't prevent us from hearing enough of it to make up our own minds.
