Lucy Letby has been found guilty of the attempted murder of a baby girl.

The convicted child killer has been found guilty of the murder of Baby K after a jury failed to reach a verdict previously in August.

Letby was previously given a whole-life term in prison at Manchester Crown Court for the murder of seven young babies and trying to murder six others while she worked at the Countess of Chester Hospital between June 2015 and June 2016.

The jury found Letby guilty today of trying to murder the ‘very premature’ baby by dislodging her breathing tube.

Baby K was targeted by Letby after she was moved from the delivery room to the neo-natal unit after her premature birth.
