Evidence of ‘malevolent’ involvement has been found as police sift through over 4,000 cases from two hospitals the killer worked at
Detectives examining the crimes of serial killer Lucy Letby are investigating the collapses of 12 babies after evidence of “malevolent” involvement, it has been reported.
Cheshire Constabulary has said it will sift through more than 4,000 admissions of babies at neonatal units at the two hospitals Letby worked at as a nurse to see if any opportunities to stop her were missed.
According to The Times, notes of 12 new cases where babies suffered unexplained collapses have been handed to police medical experts who concluded some of them indicated “malevolent” acts.
All 12 babies were said to have survived and did not form part of Letby’s 10-month trial in which she was found guilty of murdering seven babies and the attempted murder of six others.
