On Tuesday, Letby was convicted by the fresh jury of trying to murder the “very premature” infant, known as Child K.
A jury has convicted convicted child killer Lucy Letby of the attempted murder of a baby girl Letby, 34, was convicted at Manchester Crown Court last August by another jury of the murders of seven babies and the attempted murders of six others at the Countess of Chester Hospital’s neo-natal unit between June 2015 and June 2016.
Letby targeted Child K after the infant was moved from the delivery room to the neo-natal unit shortly after her premature birth. Dr Jayaram told jurors he saw “no evidence” that she had done anything to help the deteriorating baby as he walked in and saw her standing next to the infant’s incubator. Child K was transferred to a specialist hospital later on February 17 because of her extreme prematurity and died there three days later.
