A nurse who acted as Lucy Letby's mentor thought "not again" when a baby collapsed just one night after the infant's twin brother tragically died, a trial heard.
Lucy Letby allegedly injected air into the bloodstream of the newborn Child A shortly after she came on shift on June 8 2015 - just 24 hours after the baby's premature birth. The Crown alleges she used the same method to attack his sister, Child B, on the following night shift.
The infant's twin brother had deteriorated rapidly the evening before and died at the Countess of Chester Hospital's neonatal unit despite efforts to revive him. A nursing colleague yesterday recalled she was preparing medicines when the monitor alarm sounded at Child B's incubator.
