Panel of experts to present ‘new medical evidence’ in Lucy Letby case

On Tuesday, analysis conducted by a “blue riband committee” of 14 neonatalogists will be revealed at a press conference in central London

The babies were attacked by various means while the defendant worked as a nurse on the neonatal unit at the Countess of Chester Hospital (Cheshire Police)

An international panel of experts in the care of newborn babies will present what they say is “significant new medical evidence” in the case of convicted child serial killer Lucy Letby.

Letby, 35, from Hereford, is serving 15 whole-life orders after she was convicted at Manchester Crown Court of murdering seven infants and attempting to murder seven others, with two attempts on one of her victims, between June 2015 and June 2016.
