Lucy Letby is the fourth female in British criminal history to be sentenced with a whole life order but how will the rest of her days behind bars play out?
Killer nurse Lucy Letby has finally been put behind bars for good today more than five years after officers first attended her home and placed her under arrest.
The Mirror reports that Letby will likely start her sentence in either HMP Bronzefield in Surrey, where she's already served time, or maximum security prison, HMP Low Newton, in Durham. Top news stories today Experts say she will start her sentence in the hospital wing of the prison where her mental and physical health will be assessed, and as a way of protecting her safety from other inmates. Eventually, she'll be moved into her own cell.
"She'll be what's known as a 'restricted status' prisoner," Mark Leech, a prisons expert and editor of The Prison Oracle website told the Telegraph. "She'll be on suicide watch and it will be some time before she gets to mingle with the main prison population - at least six months."Professor Yvonne Jewkes, professor of criminology at the University of Bath, says Letby will have a price on her head.
The inmate will be encouraged by staff to be mentally stimulated during confinement which could cause more stress which is common for prisoners being locked up for this long.
