Colin Norris: Doubt over serial killer conviction

The foreman of a jury which convicted a serial killer has told the BBC he now believes the man is innocent.

Scottish nurse Colin Norris, 38, was jailed for life in 2008 for murdering four patients and attempting to kill a fifth at hospitals in Leeds, where he worked as a nurse.

Juror Paul Moffitt spoke out after a Panorama investigation suggested the women may have died of natural causes.

He told the BBC that if the case was presented today with the new evidence, he doubted if it would get to court.
