Lucy Letby denies the murders of seven babies and the attempted murders of 10 others at the Countess of Chester Hospital.

Neonatal assistant Lisa Walker told jurors at Manchester Crown Court she was ‘shocked’ and ‘taken aback’.

LUCY LETBY “told off” a colleague who shouted for help when a baby’s oxygen levels dropped, her murder trial has been told.

A NURSE with more than 20 years of experience was “struck” with a rash that appeared on a baby allegedly murdered by Lucy Letby, a court heard.

The baby girl, referred to as Child D, is said to be the third child murdered in a two-week period.

Caroline Oakley said Baby D was doing so well on the neonatal unit at the Countess of Chester Hospital that she was about to be given her first feed of expressed milk.

The shift leader at the Countess of Chester Hospital said she wanted Letby, 32, to concentrate on caring for a baby boy she considered the most poorly newborn.
