Mike Lynch, a British tech mogul and recent fraud acquittee, tragically died when his superyacht sank off the coast of Sicily. Before his death, Lynch expressed a desire to investigate the conviction of Lucy Letby, a nurse imprisoned for the murders of seven infants, believing her case might exemplify a miscarriage of justice. Former cabinet minister Sir David Davis, who planned to collaborate with Lynch on establishing a UK equivalent of the Innocence Project, noted Lynch's expertise in probability theory allowed him to identify statistical weaknesses in Letby's prosecution. Davis intended to visit Letby in prison as part of their investigation, which highlights growing concerns among medical professionals regarding her conviction. Lynch's death is seen as not only a personal tragedy but also a significant loss for efforts to combat injustices within the legal system. His legacy includes a long battle against extradition to the US that ended with his acquittal just months prior to his untimely death.
