The Lucy Letby Case, with Amanda Knox

About this episode

The episode discusses the controversial case of neonatal nurse Lucy Letby, featuring an interview with Amanda Knox.

It's often said that the modern world has two separate courts: the actual court of legal proceedings -- and the much less reliable court of public opinion. Neonatal nurse Lucy Letby is no exception: despite numerous legal concerns and objections to the prosecution of her case, Letby was convicted of multiple child murders, and remains incarcerated in the United Kingdom today. In this interview segment, Ben, Matt and Noel welcome the legendary author, activist, journalist and podcaster Amanda Knox, the creator of DOUBT, to learn more about Letby's story.
