I think they to continue give evidence in the case of Child G, a baby girl.
The prosecution say she was force-fed milk, allegedly by Letby. She did not die but LL has been charged with attempted murder.
from previous testimony before the break:
Medical expert Dr. Dewi Evans, who was brought in by the National Crime Agency to review the case, testified it was “astonishing” for such a small child to vomit so severely.
“For a baby of 2kg [4.4 pounds] to vomit that far is quite remarkable. Even more astonishing is the vomit that ends up on the chair. That is several feet away,” he told the court.
“I can’t recall a baby vomiting on the floor. I can’t recall a baby vomiting that distance. It was described quite correctly as extraordinary.”
The baby’s health rapidly declined in the wake of the vomiting — and she had to be intubated and placed on a ventilator.
Evans said the only explanation was that Child G “had received far more milk” than the approved 45mls [1.5 ounces] in her feeding tube, adding that it “cannot occur accidentally.”
The baby survived but was left with irreversible brain damage in the wake of the ordeal, the court heard.
