He didn't think it was quite as sinister

as what it was but he thought that some people might not be doing their jobs properly and it was it was getting quite devastating at this point so something needed to be done.

So he compiled a list of the 13 children that we've spoken about in this case because they were all very very similar, just random cardiac arrests, respiratory attacks out of nowhere, they'd stop breathing, their heart would stop, they'd turn blue, it was all the same.

And he went and contacted the authorities

The police.

And he basically said, look, I've got no proof of anything, but I just know that something is not right here.

Something is going on and I need you to look into this.

And police agreed that something didn't seem quite right with those figures and all of the cases that this doctor had told them.

And so on May 3rd, 1991, the doctors went down to Grantham and Costeven Hospital to speak with Dr. Porter and one of his colleagues.

And in this meeting, there was another man invited.

So there were the doctors from Grantham Hospital, but also a professor named Dr. Hull, who was also a medical professional, but he wasn't linked to Grantham Hospital in any way.

They needed like a completely separate perspective.

And after this meeting, Dr. Hull took all of this information, all of this evidence that the hospital had given him, and he wrote up a report.

And he mainly focused this report on a few of the more concerning cases, or the cases that he felt were the most concerning.

The main one being the case of Paul Crampton, one of the surviving children.

He was the one where they found those insanely high insulin levels in his blood,

And they put it down to an insulinoma, but they actually never had any evidence that there was even an insulinoma there.

And Professor Hull basically said, if this was down to an insulinoma, it would be a recurring issue.

This insulinoma would keep coming back.

But like I said, Paul Crampton never had any issues like this ever again.
