News,Lucy Letby

A judge on Monday was set to sentence Lucy Letby for murdering seven babies and attempting to kill six others while working as a neonatal nurse at a hospital in northern England.

LISTEN:Lucy Letby's parents were a constant presence during her first trial - they unwaveringly showed up every day of the ten-month proceedings at Manchester Crown Court.

In the following hours, the cruel killer tried a further two times to murder the infant who was so tiny she would have fitted into Letby's open palm. The former nurse remained emotionless as the verdict was read out while Baby K's father held his head in his hands and other relatives cried from the public gallery.

And as the guilty verdicts were returned, Mrs Letby broke into a series of anguished sobs which continued even after she had left the court. At one point she cried out: 'You can't be serious. This cannot be right.' Lucy Letby timeline November 2020 - Letby, from Hereford, is arrested and charged following a string of baby deaths at the Countess of Chester Hospital's neonatal unit.

'I feel bad because I know it's really hard for them especially as I'm an only child, and they mean well, just a little suffocating at times and constantly feel guilty.' Letby, now 34, denied the latest charge, and still maintains her innocence of the crimes she had previously been found guilty of. She insists she has never harmed any baby in her care.
