Case Update! EP28: Nightmare Nurse: Lucy Letby (Part 1)

Psychopedia · 2024-07-05

UPDATE: On the day on which this update was recorded, a significant development occurred in the case of Lucy Letby, a former nurse who ruthlessly and deliberately murdered seven newborn babies at the neonatal unit of the Countess of Chester Hospital in England. Tune in to hear this devastating update, "hot off the press," as tragically, Letby has just been convicted of taking yet another precious life. If you've already listened to our coverage of this heartbreaking case, we encourage you to listen again along with the update provided at the top of the episode. If you have not yet listened, be sure to check out our full coverage of the entire case in our two episodes, Nightmare Nurse: Lucy Letby (Part 1 and 2). Please listen with caution.

For nearly a full year between June 2015 and June 2016, the neonatal unit at Countess of Chester Hospital in England was plagued by a series of heart-wrenching and inexplicable infant deaths at a rate that was not just alarming, but also statistically unusual and significant. Tragically, newborn baby fatalities and/or near-death collapses were occuring abruptly and often, and crucially, under the care and supervision of one young nurse named Lucy Letby. As the expression goes: once is an accident, twice is a coincidence, three times is a pattern. Seventeen times (at least) is the work of the most prolific child serial killer in modern UK history.
