A public inquiry into how British nurse Lucy Letby was able to carry out the horrific murders of babies in her care should be put on hold, according to a lawyer representing hospital bosses. This comes after fresh evidence has emerged, raising serious doubts about her convictions.
Letby, now 35, was found guilty of killing seven babies and attempting to kill eight more during her time at the neonatal unit of the Countess of Chester Hospital (COCH) between June 2015 and June 2016. Her conviction made her the most notorious child killer in modern British history.
