'Angel of Death' child killer nurse Beverley Allitt has served more than three decades in a psychiatric hospital after being convicted of the murder of babies in her care
Beverley Allitt attacked babies and children more than 36 times over a two-month period while working as a nurse in 1991.
Lucy Letby, a British nurse who killed seven infants in her care, has drawn comparisons to Beverley Allitt, a nurse who similarly killed four babies in 1991.
Beverley Allitt murdered seven-week-old Liam Taylor, 11-year-old Timothy Hardwick, two-month-old Becky Phillips and 15-month-old Claire Peck at Grantham and Kesteven Hospital
Letby attacked many of her tiny victims in the same way as Beverley Allitt, who was given 13 life sentences in 1993 for murdering four children in her care and harming nine others
