Eamonn Holmes, who hosts the channel's breakfast programme, said Letby has "forfeited" any human rights she once had and argued the 33-year-old should have been made to attend Manchester Crown Court to listen to victim impact statements and be present when Mr Justice Goss delivers her sentence.

Letby, from Hereford, stood trial after being accused of deliberately harming the infants in various ways, including by injecting air intravenously and administering air and/or milk into the stomach via nasogastric tubes. It was also claimed by the prosecution she added insulin as a poison to intravenous feeds, interfered with breathing tubes, and inflicted trauma in some cases. Last week, a jury found Letby guilty of murdering seven babies and tried to kill six more while working at the Countess of Chester Hospital neonatal unit between 2015-2016. Her sentencing is currently taking place in Manchester, where she could receive a whole-life order for her crimes. Speaking on GB News this morning, host Eamonn argued Letby should be made to face the court today, just hours before it was confirmed the 33-year-old wouldn't be in){kind=link}
