British child-killer nurse given whole-life prison sentence


Manchester (United Kingdom) (AFP) – A British nurse has been jailed for life, with no prospect of release, for murdering seven newborn babies and attempting to kill six others while they were in her care. Lucy Letby, 33, was convicted of killing five baby boys and two baby girls, making her the UK’s most prolific child serial killer in modern history. She was arrested following a string of baby deaths at the neonatal unit of the Countess of Chester Hospital in northwest England between June 2015 and June 2016.
