Lucy Letby: Police urged to investigate hospital bosses after failure to act

siteadmin August 21, 2023

Lucy Letby, a former nurse, was convicted for killing seven infants and attempting to kill six more between 2015 and 2016. Colleagues reported her actions to hospital management as early as 2015, but no actions were taken. The prosecution’s lead medical expert has urged police to investigate the bosses at the Countess of Chester Hospital for corporate manslaughter and criminal negligence. The hospital management was accused of ignoring warnings to protect the institution’s reputation.
