    Multiple doctors came forward to say that their concerns were ahot down by hospital administrators. They cared more about a bad mark on their record than a someone harming newborns under their watch.

        Okay but the mortality numbers for her unit pretty clearly and obviously pointed to the fact that something was happening here other than the natural deaths one would expect in a NICU

          Absolutely. However it took more time because it’s an inherent risk for the unit.

        They said other than when she was working, and before and after she left the number was around or close to 0-2 per year, so pretty obviously an anomaly and certainly worthy of an investigation. The doctors that reported her were punished by the administrators and actually forced to apologise to her so I think they are pretty guilty in the circumstances.

      Kill a bunch of babies? Jail forever.

      Ignore someone killing babies to keep your £250,000 a year job safe? That’s just good neoliberaling.
