Nurse Of Death: The Lucy Letby Story

Nurse Convicted of Infant Murders Struck-Off Nursing Registry as She Maintains Innocence


Listen Later

Four months after being found guilty of murdering seven infants in a British hospital, former nurse Lucy Letby has officially been removed from the nursing registry, according to reports. The Nursing and Midwifery Council took this action after her conviction in August, where she received a life sentence for her heinous crimes.
 
 Lucy Letby, who previously worked in the neonatal ward of the Countess of Chester Hospital in Chester, England, has had her nursing registration revoked by the Nursing and Midwifery Council. This decision comes after her conviction for the murder of seven infants and the attempted murder of six others. Despite the conviction, Letby continues to assert her innocence.
 
 In a "tick-box exercise" conducted before the hearing, Letby acknowledged the convictions but maintained her innocence regarding the allegations, stating, "I accept the fact of the convictions. However, I do not accept that I am guilty of any of the allegations." She also expressed that she remained "innocent in respect of all of the convictions."
 
 Lucy Letby's troubles began in 2016 when she was removed from the neonatal ward following suspicions raised by senior hospital staff. A year of mysterious infant deaths and near-deaths prompted concerns and led to her reassignment.
 
 During her 10-month trial, disturbing allegations emerged, including the accusation that she had deliberately killed two of three triplets within a 24-hour period. Additionally, it was reported that Letby had allegedly written "I killed them on purpose" on a sticky note, further incriminating her in the eyes of the law. However, the 11-person jury could not reach a unanimous verdict on attempted murder charges related to the cases of four other babies.
 
 Prior to Lucy Letby's sentencing, parents of the infants who fell victim to her actions voiced their anguish. The mother of one of the babies, identified as Child D, expressed her pain, saying, "I cannot forgive you. There is no forgiving. Not now, not ever."
 
 Another mother, whose twin boys were affected (identified as Child E and F), criticized Letby for not attending her sentencing hearing and referred to her as a "coward." She added, "Our world was shattered when we encountered evil disguised as a caring nurse."
 
 While Lucy Letby now faces life in prison for the murders she was convicted of, her legal battle is not yet over. A retrial on an attempted murder charge is scheduled for June 2024, ensuring that the tragic and deeply unsettling case continues to command attention and legal proceedings.
 
 The nursing community, along with the wider public, remains shaken by the horrifying revelations surrounding Letby's actions in the neonatal ward, as the quest for justice and closure for the affected families unfolds.
