A coroner said hospital bosses never told him of suspicions that a member of staff may be responsible for a number of baby deaths, the public inquiry over Lucy Letby’s crimes has heard.

Consultant paediatricians raised concerns about Letby to senior managers at the Countess of Chester Hospital in late June 2016 following the deaths of two triplet boys on successive days.
