Good Girl Nurse Killed 7 Babies To Get Doctor’s Attention & Sympathy
In a shocking turn of events, former British neonatal nurse Lucy Letby, once considered a "good girl" by her colleagues, was found guilty of murdering seven babies and attempting to kill six others between 2015 and 2016. The case shook the UK and raised disturbing questions about how such atrocities could occur in a hospital environment trusted by parents and families. Letby’s crimes, committed at the Countess of Chester Hospital in England, involved injecting air, insulin, and feeding overdoses of milk to the infants in her care.
During her trial, a chilling motive was suggested: Letby was infatuated with a doctor at the hospital and allegedly committed the murders to gain his sympathy and attention. Prosecutors argued that Letby sought to place herself at the center of crises, repeatedly positioning herself in proximity to the tragedies she caused. One colleague testified that Letby would seem pleased or unusually calm after babies had sudden health declines.
Letby’s fixation on the doctor was only one of the disturbing elements of her behavior. In an unsettling statement, she once told a colleague that one of her victims “wasn’t leaving here alive,” demonstrating a clear awareness of the lethal actions she had taken just moments before.
