Since the Lucy Letby trial reached its conclusion, Kayley Asher has been living in a state of heightened fear. She checks under her bed and in her wardrobe, convinced that Letby is coming to get her.
Kayley was 14 months old when another nurse, Beverley Allitt, tried to kill her in 1991. Allitt was said to have twice injected air under Kayley’s armpit, which made her lungs collapse. The respiratory arrest left her with permanent brain injuries.
