Letby told the doctor she was 'still in holiday mode' on day when she murdered a baby
Letby, 33, was convicted of murdering seven babies while working at the Neonatal Unit in the Countess of Chester Hospital between June 2015 and June 2016. A jury at Manchester Crown Court also found her guilty of attempting to murder an additional six babies.
Following her return from a holiday to Ibiza with friends, she messaged the doctor in June 2016 about the arrival of triplets on the unit – two of whom she went on to murder. She asked: “What gestation are the trips? I don’t mind being busy anyway. Are you on nnu tomorrow?” Letby also frequently sought reassurance from her senior colleague, who was called to attend Child N, Child O and Child P in June 2016 as they deteriorated. The prosecution accused Letby of having “a crush” on the doctor and that she had attacked those infants to get his attention at work.
Letby said: “I know. Just worry I haven’t done enough. We’ve lost two babies I was caring for and now this happened today, makes you think ‘am I missing something/good enough’.” The doctor went on: “You are one of a few nurses across the region that I would trust with my own children.” Letby said the friendship “fizzled out” at the beginning of 2018 before her arrest in the summer of that year.
