According to staff on the ward at the time, bosses discouraged Letby’s colleagues from sharing their concerns with the police

A former chief nurse has been suspended from the NHS following the conviction of baby-murderer Lucy Letby. Alison Kelly, was the nursing director at the Countess of Chester Hospital, where Letby killed seven babies, and tried to murder six others between June 2015 and June 2016.

Letby, who was sentenced to a whole-life sentence yesterday (August 21) following a 10-month trial, killed the innocent babies by poisoning them with insulin, injecting air into their veins and overfeeding them with milk. Alison Kelly and other managers at the Countess of Chester Hospital have been accused of ignoring warnings about Letby.
