Overview
Lucy Letby, a former neonatal nurse sentenced to multiple life terms for murdering and attempting to murder infants, has lost her appeal against her conviction for attempting to kill Child K. Her legal team argued extensive media coverage created a prejudiced environment affecting her retrial fairness. The Court of Appeal ruled the trial was fair, dismissing her claims as misguided. Letby's attempt to challenge her earlier convictions was also previously dismissed, and an investigation into the hospital's failures to prevent her crimes continues.
