A mum "interrupted" alleged serial killer Lucy Letby trying to murder her baby and was told "trust me, I'm a nurse", a jury heard today.
Lucy Letby, 32, is on trial at Manchester Crown Court accused of the murder of seven babies and the attempted murder of another 10, including some on more than one occasion, at the Countess of Chester Hospital. She denies seven counts of murder and 15 of attempted murder.
The jury has been told Letby allegedly used various methods to attack the babies, including using intravenous tubes to inject air into their bloodstreams and poisoning their feed with insulin. The Band 5 nurse is also said to have searched for the families of the babies she attacked on Facebook.
