Dads call for ‘Angel of Death’ killer Beverley Allitt to rot in jail after serving 30 years for murdering four kids

TWO dads have called for "Angel of Death" killer Beverley Allitt never to be released after her tot murder spree.

Steve Gibson and David Crampton both nearly lost young children to the nurse and hope she is never allowed to walk the streets again.

Allit killed four kids in a 59-day rampage at Grantham and Kesteven Hospital in in 1991, after being taken on amid staff shortages despite being underqualified.

Steve's five-year-old son was injected with a near-fatal amount of potassium, while David's five-month-old Paul was given three overdoses of insulin in the same month.

Now, they have called on parole authorities to never consider the murderer for release.

Speaking to , David, 68, said: "If it was down to me, I would not want to see her ever released."

Meanwhile, Steve, 66, compared Allitt to Moors murderess Myra Hindley and said she will "stay [in custody] until she dies."

Young Bradley suffered a heart attack after being injected but, now 35, has "turned out OK", according to his dad.

Recalling the terrifying ordeal he went through, Steve said: "I can remember someone saying ‘It’s not looking good’ and asking if we’d like to see a chaplain.

"They managed to get his heart started a few times. The possibility of him having brain damage was there as well.

"We didn’t find out for weeks that he was going to be OK."

Paul, meanwhile, is now a 30-year-old dad of three.

David explained: "I don’t think what happened had an effect on him growing up. It was talked about openly.

"It really struck home when he became a parent himself. He fully understood then what we must have gone through."

In 1993, Allitt was convicted of the murders of Timothy Hardwick, 11, Liam Taylor, seven weeks, Becky Philips, nine weeks, and 15-month old Clair Peck.

She was also found guilty of three attempted murders and six counts of grievous bodily harm.

The judge handed her 13 life sentences, with a minimum 30-year term.

Psychiatrists diagnosed Allit with Munchausen Syndrome by proxy, a condition marked by attention-seeking behaviours by a caregiver, often by harming those in their charge.

Medical records from 1985 show that she was psychologically disturbed and prone to self-harm.

She was sent to Rampton Hospital, Nottinghamshire, a high-security psychiatric hospital.

The killer nurse, now 54, will not be eligible for parole until she is considered well enough to be moved to a regular prison, but a mental health panel is believed to meet every three years to assess her.

It comes after Kayley Asher, who also survived an attack by Allit, revealed that she feared that her tormenter would "get her" after being released.

Kayley was left with brain damage after Allit injected her with air, causing her to suffer collapsed lungs and two cardiac arrests.
