Investigation Launched into Hospital Following Deaths of Infants and Murder Convictions

The hospital where Lucy Letby, a former neonatal nurse, worked is under investigation for "corporate manslaughter" following the deaths of seven infants. Letby was previously convicted of murdering seven babies and attempting to kill six others at the Countess of Chester Hospital in England. The investigation will focus on senior leadership and decision-making during the period of Letby's charges. The probe is in its early stages, and no individuals are currently being investigated for gross negligence manslaughter. Letby is also seeking permission to appeal her convictions and is facing a retrial for an attempted murder allegation.
