New Evidence Emerges in Lucy Letby Case

Lucy Letby, a former neonatal nurse, was sentenced to life in prison without parole in August 2023 for murdering seven infants and attempting to murder six others. Recent evidence suggests she may have harmed more babies than previously known, with indications that one child under her care was poisoned with insulin. Medical records reveal that during her shift, the infant's blood sugar dropped significantly, coinciding with unusually high insulin levels, raising suspicions of foul play. Reports indicate that almost a third of Letby's shifts involved potentially life-threatening incidents, prompting scrutiny of the prosecution's evidence. Critics, including medical experts, have questioned the validity of the evidence used in her convictions. Letby has been denied leave to appeal her convictions, and ongoing investigations are uncovering new cases of harm associated with her tenure at the Countess of Chester Hospital.
