An inquiry into the events surrounding the crimes of Letby heard that a baby girl's death in October 2015 could have been prevented if 'prompt and effective action' was taken following the deaths of three infants in June of that year. The serial killer had injected air into Child I's stomach and bloodstream as she finally took her life on her fourth attempt.
The mother accused bosses of 'trying to create their own narrative that Lucy Letby was a victim of bullying and harassment ' to protect the hospital from 'looking bad'.
