Accused baby killer Lucy Letby cries in the dock as she gives evidence for first time


Nurse Lucy Letby was seen getting emotional and wiping her eyes as she gave her first evidence, before saying it’s “very difficult”. She told Manchester Crown Court: “Everything about me and about my life, and the hopes I had for the future, everything is just gone.”

According to Letby, she first became conscious of being blamed for a number of baby deaths in September 2016.

She said the moment was “sickening”.

Letby added: “I don’t think you can be accused of anything worse than that.”

The nurse is facing allegations of killing seven infants and trying to murder ten others.
