Between 2015 and 2016, unusually high infant mortality rates occurred at the neonatal intensive care unit of the Countess of Chester Hospital in Chester, England. A series of investigations was initiated to ascertain the reasons for the sharp rise in mortalities. After a lengthy set of investigations, Lucy Letby, a nurse working at the hospital at the time, was arrested in 2018 on suspicion of eight counts of suspected murder and six counts of attempted murder. She was released on bail pending further enquiries. Letby was arrested for a second time in 2019 with eight alleged murders and nine alleged attempted murders, again she was bailed pending further enquiries. Letby's final arrest came in November 2020 following which she was charged with 8 counts of murder and 10 counts of attempted murder. Letby's ongoing trial began in October 2022, and is due to conclude after six months. (en) |

There are no words. I am an awful person. I pay everyday for that. No hope. I can't breathe. I can't focus. I'll never have children or marry I'll never know what it's like to have a family. Kill myself right now. Overwhelming fear. I haven't done anything wrong. Police investigation. Forget. Slander discrimination victimisation. Despair, panic, fear, lost, HATE. Hate myself so much. All getting to much everything taking over my life. I feel very alone and scared. What does the future hold. How can I get through it. How will things ever be like they were. They won't. I don't deserve to live. I DID THIS WHY ME. I killed them on purpose because I'm not good enough to care for them, and I am horrible and evil person. I don't deserve mum and dad. The world is better off without me. I AM EVIL I DID THIS. (en) |
