I doubt it’s a lie, imo it’s just yet more evidence as to how self centred she is. As Sweeper eloquently stated,’ it was nothing personally significant to her’. It’s just her third death ever and most likely the first and only time she saw a father collapse to the floor in grief. What could possibly be personally significant about that?
Go get some sleepI won't be posting any more of Dan today....ZZZZZZZZ
Oh dear another very conflicting piece of evidence. I think we have enough to assume this is an individual that doesn’t leave work at work hence the handovers but we also have her saying she doesn’t remember the dad on the floor. That’s such A memorable thing and something one wouldn’t forget if they were truly a caring and over involved nurse. I’m getting a cold vibe if it’s true but it’s also not something one would lie about. Assuming she’s being truthful that might mean she is in fact cold and thrives on the emotional turmoil of others. Oh dear.
Give the man some credit!
I needed more details. We have them now. I did think we would have to wait for more info, that’s why I said I thought it strange the police didn’t ask for more deets. Ie “what is it about AE that you don’t know“? It was such a short answer it would appear in retrospect a cagey and defensive response.

Thanks - this confirms how they knew the card photo was taken in the unit:Lucy Letby trial: Nurse accuses doctors of conspiracy against her
Lucy Letby accuses a "gang of four" of "apportioning blame" on to her "to cover up" hospital failings.
Re-direct isn't a rebuttal witness thing. After the prosecution has finished its cross the defendant's counsel gets to do the re-direct. That is to clarify anything that has been said in the cross. The cross is a time for leading 'yes' and 'no' type answers. The re-direct is for the defendant to say 'yes, I meant it *this* way and not *that* way (or whatever the prosecution has tried to imply).
Perhaps, but that wasn’t her response though.
As others have said, though, she messaged someone to tell them that the dad was on the floor howling. How does anyone not recall that? You might not necessarily relate to a particular baby but it's inconceivable to me that you wouldn't remember it, especially if it was so noteworthy that you messaged someone about it.
I’m not sure you can paint the picture being taken on the ward as unusual. If you think about it, her taking photos of such things if not unusual the unit was the last place she could. The last opportunity for her to take the photo.
She's already sat in court listening to those texts being read out, so she knows she wrote them. She's maybe saying she doesn't have a current memory of it. That's not lying.
However, the trial has already heard that colleagues, and supervision, for the most part, thought well of her, and considered her a decent nurse. The defence counsel will be able to intimate, in closing argument if not before, that the prosecution is really petty and grasping at straws, and that none of this is proof of the crimes of murder or attempted murder.
That wasn't what she said and was corrected months later in evidence. She said that she wouldn't especially know what the symptoms might be, not that she didn't know it was dangerous.
