A nurse at a U.K. hospital tried to kill a baby girl four times before she was successful, then sent a sympathy card to her victim's parents, a court was told on Wednesday. Lucy Letby is accused of murdering the girl and six other babies at the Countess of Chester Hospital in northwest England between June 2015 and June 2016.
She is also alleged to have attempted to murder 10 other infants at the same neo-natal unit in the same period.
Prosecutor Nick Johnson said the death of the girl — referred to in court as "Child I" — was "extreme even by the standards of this overall case."
