Claiming that Letby shows false compassion for families, Jones said: “She hurt babies and their families where they should be safest.

WHAT HAPPENED?
Letby, who started working at Chester hospital in 2011, was hospitalized in late 2016 due to the increase in child deaths during his days on duty in 2015-2016, and an investigation was launched in 2017.
As part of the investigation, in which the names of the babies and their families were kept secret, it was determined that the children who died were injected with air and insulin or died from overfeeding.
The mother of premature twins, named Child L and Child M, who testified in court, stated that both children needed urgent intervention within hours of each other, saying: “Letby was very calm and cold-blooded. From that point on, her whole demeanor changed from her and she started acting really mad at us. She was thinking: ‘she couldn’t kill your children. she had used the words.
Two children survived, but child M suffered brain damage.
Another newborn nurse said in her statement: “When the alarms started going off, ‘Is Lucy working today?’ we asked each other.” he said.
It was also revealed within the scope of the investigation that Letby continued to work in the same position for a further 1 year despite concerns being reported by the other hospital employees in 2015, and was assigned to clerical duties in 2016. (BRITISH AUTOMOBILE CLUB )
