Child killer nurse Lucy Letby’s crimes are to be examined at a public inquiry today with hearings expected to last until the end of the year.
Letby was convicted of the murders of seven babies and the attempted murders of seven others, with two attempts on one child, when she worked on the neonatal unit at the Countess of Chester Hospital between June 2015 and June 2016.
Chaired by Lady Justice Thirlwall, the investigation at Liverpool Town Hall will focus on how Letby was able to attack babies on the ward, and how its bosses handled concerns about her.
