Lucy Letby - latest: Thirlwall Inquiry into crimes of killer nurse to publish report today Serial killer Letby, 36, was convicted of killing seven babies and attempting to murder seven more, with two attempts on one of those victims The inquiry into killer nurse Lucy Letby - who was convicted of killing seven babies and attempting to murder seven more - is due to publish its report at noon today. Experts have been looking at whether bosses and staff at the Countess of Chester Hospital missed opportunities to stop her while she was working there between 2015 and 2016. Letby, 36, was found to have killed and harmed babies by injecting air into their blood, poisoning them with insulin, and overfeeding them with milk. The public inquiry - chaired by Lady Justice Thirlwall - is expected to highlight a number of missed opportunities for bosses to intervene after doctors raised the alarm about a spate of unexplained baby deaths on the hospital's neonatal unit The inquiry is expected to highlight a number of missed opportunities for bosses to intervene after doctors raised the alarm about a spate of unexplained baby deaths on the neonatal unit where Letby worked. A criminal investigation into three hospital executives is still underway by Cheshire Police. They were previously arrested on suspicion of gross negligence manslaughter and one has since been rearrested on suspicion of perverting the course of justice. The final report from the Thirlwall Inquiry, which has examined how serial killer Lucy Letby was able to commit her crimes on a hospital neonatal unit, is set to be released today. The inquiry heard evidence on events at the Countess of Chester hospital's neonatal unit where Letby was a nurse between 2015 and 2016. Consultants repeatedly raised concerns that Letby, now 36, may have been behind a series of unexplained deaths before she was arrested. Letby is serving 15 whole-life orders after she was convicted of murdering seven babies and attempting to murder seven others, with two attempts on one of her victims. One of the core aims of the Inquiry, set up in September 2023, was to consider how an NHS Trust responds to, reacts and treats concerns raised by staff of serious criminal actions in its own hospital.
