British nurse Lucy Letby is on trial accused of murdering another baby in her care at an English neonatal unit.The trial is expected to last four weeks and jurors have been told they must reach a verdict on evidence and nothing else.
"In a nutshell, we are saying that her status as a multiple murderer and attempted murderer is an important piece of evidence you can, if you wish, take into account when you are considering if we have proved … that she was attempting to murder ," Mr Johnson said. That was because it was "Lucy Letby, the convicted murderer, who had displaced the tube", Mr Johnson said.He told the court that on two further occasions that night Letby interfered with the breathing tube after being "caught virtually red-handed" to give the impression there was a particular problem with the baby.
The nurse harmed babies in ways that were difficult to detect, and she persuaded colleagues that their collapses and deaths were normal, prosecutors said at the time.
