Defence lawyer tells murder trial that ‘committed’ nurse had nothing to do with ‘terrible failings’ on neonatal unit
Lucy Letby sobbed in court as she was described as “the obvious target” for a hospital that failed babies in its care, during the nurse’s murder trial at Manchester crown court.
Letby, 33, became emotional and wiped her eyes with a tissue as her barrister said she was a “hard-working” and “committed” nurse who was “distraught” to be accused of murdering babies.
