In this gripping episode, we uncover the chilling case of Lucy Letby, a seemingly ordinary neonatal nurse who was convicted as the most prolific child serial killer in modern British history. We delve into the shocking series of infant deaths and collapses at the Countess of Chester Hospital, which for a year went unnoticed, dismissed by hospital management as mere "coincidences." We explore the cold, calculated methods Letby used to murder and harm the fragile babies in her care, from injecting air to poisoning with insulin, all in a manner designed to evade detection.You'll learn about the harrowing timeline of the crimes, the institutional failures that allowed them to continue, and the key evidenceāincluding Letby's own chilling handwritten notesāthat ultimately led to her conviction. We also discuss the lingering controversy surrounding the verdict, the psychological theories behind her actions, and the profound impact of this case on the victims' families and the British healthcare system. This is a story about the ultimate betrayal of trust and the hidden darkness that can reside in the most unexpected places.Sources :https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucy_Letbyhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2TBj1fL-eK4https://people.com/crime/lucy-letby-trial-5-most-disturbing-allegations-prosecutors-rest-case/
