The mum of a baby boy killer nurse Letby tried to murder at the Countess of Chester Hospital has said 'nothing effective' had been done by NHS authorities to prevent another killing spree
The mother of a baby who Lucy Letby tried to kill says hospital bosses who ignored concerns about her were "complicit in the harm that was caused" and should face criminal action.

A lot of the harm that Lucy Letby did could have been avoided if a thorough and prompt investigation had taken place after concerns were raised."
"It should start with the people at the top. They should listen to the consultants who work day in and day out on the wards and experience and know about the day-to-day running of the NHS. It shouldn't be someone sat in an office making decisions." The parents of twins Child L and M, who Letby attempted to murder in April 2016, also criticised the then management at the Countess of Chester. Letby poisoned Child L with insulin and injected air into Child M's bloodstream.
