CBSN
Lucy Letby, a British neonatal nurse who is serving a life sentence for murdering seven babies and attempting to murder six others, was convicted Tuesday of trying to kill another infant in her care.
A jury found that Letby, 34, tried to kill a baby girl, known as Child K, in February 2016 at the Countess of Chester Hospital in northwestern England. A previous jury had failed to reach a verdict on the case.
Letby, who testified that she never harmed a child, was accused of trying to murder the "very premature" child by dislodging her breathing tube in the early hours of Feb. 17, 2016.
