Lawyers for Lucy Letby have stated that fresh evidence has emerged that “significantly undermines” her convictions. The 34-year-old killer nurse was handed 15 whole-life orders after being convicted for the murder of seven babies and for attempting to take the lives of seven more when she worked as a neo-natal nurse at Countess of Chester Hospital.
Letby has consistently maintained her innocence. In a press conference on Monday morning, barrister Mark McDonald said Letby’s defence team now intends to seek the Court of Appeal’s permission to reopen her appeal and re-examine all her convictions, reports the Mirror.
