More than a dozen relatives of Letby's victims sat in the public gallery for the hearing on Monday and eight jurors returned to see the sentencing.
Serial child murderer Lucy Letby has refused to appear for her sentencing hearing as she faces spending the rest of her life in prison.
The nurse murdered seven babies and tried to kill six more while working at the Countess of Chester Hospital neonatal unit between 2015 and 2016. He said the murders qualified on a number of grounds, including that they were premeditated and they involved an elements of "sadistic conduct". But late on Sunday, a Government source suggested "lawful enforcement" could be used as a last resort to ensure Letby attends if it is considered necessary, reasonable and proportionate.
