This will be one of the biggest public inquests in Britain for the last few decades at least. I’d actually wager corporate manslaughter (usually penalised by fines) will be waived in favour of custodial sentences in regards to the direct involvement of the upper management that wilfully ignored heaps of concerns raised by far more qualified individuals than themselves. I believe in the NHS, I was brought into the world by them, and most likely I’ll go by them, but I hope that trust gets rinsed for everything they’ve got, because every single member of the medical directorate, upper management, and others involved in ignoring the red flags have blood on their hands.
Been crying about this a good few hours now. Seeing those pathetic, premeditated scrawled notes all of false remorse, painfully shallow attempts at appearing not compos mentis with the shite she was writing. I’ve seen it before during some of my clin-psych training, in regards to the psychology of murderers. She isn’t psychotic, cause there would have been all the tell tale signs of periods of psychotic breaks, and each of those murders are too calculated to be explained by psychosis. So is she a sociopath? From all I can find she led a perfectly normal life, was well liked, “competent” nurse, good upbringing, so no conventional triggers that could cause someone to spiral into sociopathy.
My only conclusion is that she is just truly evil, and that scares me. I don’t want to believe that there is universal evil, because it just raises so many conflicts in my belief in people. Can animals be evil? Or are they just hunting for food? I truly cannot fathom what this means for humanity if there’s no rationale or medical opinion by psychiatrists who will definitely get to examine her. I just don’t want to believe there is evil in this world. I will link an article about the problem of evil and how it incorporates itself into the mechanisms of the human race, and our actions, free will etc for those who are also frightened at the actual “force” of evil existing:

Sorry I am rambling. My job involves me being in and around NICU’s, Labour Suites, ACU’s, and it all just touches too close to home. Like I said, I believe in the NHS, but my heart is torn here, this is a complete failure on every perceivable level of reality. A reality those poor babies will never get to experience, and a reality the families of those babies will have to live with for the rest of their lives.
She either won’t make it to Prison, or won’t last a day. General Population or not.
