Lucy Letby's lawyers are holding a news conference as they say they have 'new evidence' that 'undermines' her convictions for the murder of seven babies and attempted murder of seven others. Watch and follow live below.
Medical expert Dr Richard Taylor is now speaking. He says he has read a report on Baby O, and the baby was 'doing reasonably well' before an apnea, when medical staff placed the baby in an incubator and gave them a ventilator.'The baby was not unwell, particularly' but the baby was put on 'very high-pressure settings' in the ventilator which was 'inappropriate'.
One of the doctors responded to concerns about the baby having a distended abdomen by 'placing a needle into the abdomen' to aspirate it on the right side.'The needle perforated the liver. The baby was still being ventilated with the needle in the liver. The liver was now being lacerated by the needle. This led to bleeding... into the abdomen. The baby went into shock.
