Lucy Letby killed two babies from set of triplets after returning from Ibiza holiday, court hears

NURSE Lucy Letby murdered two babies from a set of triplets immediately after returning from a holiday to Ibiza, a court heard yesterday.

Baby O died during her first shift back at the Countess of Chester Hospital, while his brother Baby P died a day later.

Letby, 33, is accused of injecting them with air.

The court heard their parents begged a transport team to transfer their third triplet to another hospital.

Their father said: “We said there’s no way he’s staying at this hospital.

“If you don’t take him, we’ll take him ourselves.”

The jury heard that the child was moved.

Letby, originally from Hereford, denies murdering seven babies and attempting to kill a further ten between June 2015 and June 2016.

The trial at Manchester crown court continues.
