Lucy Letby’s lawyers have called for her case to be investigated over a ‘miscarriage of justice’ as they made a final plea to have her 15 life sentences overturned.
Letby, from Hereford, was convicted of the murders of seven babies and the attempted murders of seven others, with two attempts on one child, when she worked on the neonatal unit at the Countess of Chester Hospital between June 2015 and June 2016.
After two trials, she is serving 15 whole-life orders, making her only the fourth woman in UK history to be told she will never be released from prison.
