She is now deemed to be the most prolific baby killer in modern history
These are all the words the judge said as Lucy Letby, the nurse who murdered babies on the neonatal unit where she worked, was sentenced today at Manchester Crown Court.

"The methods you employed to carry out your murderous intent were only revealed by the later, detailed investigation into the events of, and surrounding, the collapses and deaths of the babies, which commenced in 2018. There was premeditation, calculation and cunning in your actions.

“I’m satisfied you started to keep these documents after those initial offences in June 2015 as morbid records of the dreadful events surrounding the collapses of your victims and what you had done to them. You had a fascination with the babies and their families, which extended to making repeated searches on Facebook for their parents - sometimes immediately following the events, and on occasions much later.
"It is no part of my function to reach conclusions as to the underlying reason or reasons for your actions. Nor could I, for they are known only to you. I must pass appropriate sentences according to law, addressing the seriousness of your offences, the facts of which I now describe briefly..."
