Nurse Lucy Letby guilty of murdering seven babies in her care

Lucy Letby

Nurse Lucy Letby has been found guilty of murdering seven babies by poisoning.

She also attempted to kill six more babies she was caring for.

Letby, 33, played “God” as she worked at the neo-natal unit at the Countess of Chester Hospital.

A court head she injected air and fluids into babies under her care between 2015 and June 2016.

The convictions make Letby the worst child serial killer in modern British history.

Parents were left devasted by the sudden death of their child.

And the deaths baffled medical staff.

However, an investigation by consultants and a spike in the death rate coincided with Letby’s ward duties.

In notes found after a raid on Letby’s home, an apparent confession was found, saying: “I AM EVIL I DID THIS”,

The case has been heard at Manchester Crown Court for the last months.

A jury found Letby guilty of seven counts of murder and six charges of attempted murder.

Jurors were undecided on a further six charges of attempted murder, and she was cleared of one charge of attempted murder.

Mr Justice Goss will now sentence her.

She faces the prospect of spending the rest of her life in prison.

Letby broke down in tears when the first verdicts were delivered days ago, which could not be reported on until the end of the trial.
