Letby was found guilty of murdering seven babies and attempting to murder seven others between June 2015 and June 2016, while she was working in the Countess of Chester Hospital’s neonatal unit. The 33-year-old was sentenced to 14 whole life orders in August 2023, meaning she will never be eligible for parole.
The case has come under scrutiny in recent months, with several leading doctors and scientists raising concerns about the evidence presented against Letby during her trial.
But BBC One’s Panorama has now found that while Letby trained at Liverpool Women’s Hospital in 2012 and 2015, almost a third of her 33 shifts saw potentially life-threatening incidents occur.
The programme reported that children’s breathing tubes had become dislodged in 40 per cent of Letby’s shifts; the usual rate per nurse per baby was just 1 per cent.
