It is 10 years since the @metpoliceuk said I would face ‘no further action’ in response to Carl Beech’s heinous lies. I, & the loved ones of Beech’s victims - alongside Sir Richard Henriques & Howard Riddle - spoke with @evansma for @Telegraph. telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/03…

Should the officer who shot & killed Chris Kaba have been named? Worth noting that 7 media groups - Associated Newspapers (Daily Mail publishers), BBC, Guardian, ITN, Reach (Mirror, Star, Express), Sky News, Times all argued in court a year ago that he should be named...

I was first stopped and searched by police when I was 16 on suspicion of kidnap. Since 2003 I’ve been stopped almost 30 times. I’ve written about those interactions and what I’ve learnt during my time on the crime beat @thetimes. 📸Tom Jackson thetimes.co.uk/article/polic…

Residents in the Finsbury Park told us they are concerned about drug dealing and women’s safety in the area. As a result, local officers executed three warrants at business premises that are suspected to be involved in drug dealing.

I've just been asked to leave the press bench in a crown court to avoid the jury wondering who I am. When I said I didn't want to, and shouldn't have to, the clerk told me I was "being difficult". It's not a great start to my morning.

This is potentially one of Letby's first victims. Worth a read. I am biased.
🔴EXCLUSIVE: In March 2014, Sarah’s newborn son died at the Countess of Chester Hospital after medics spent two days caring for him in the neonatal unit. Before he died, the Telegraph can reveal, he was being looked after by Lucy Letby telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/08…
