Inquiry reveals hospital delayed reporting concerns about nurse Lucy Letby, convicted of infant murders, by a year.

A public inquiry revealed that concerns about nurse Lucy Letby, convicted of murdering seven infants and attempting to murder seven others, were not reported to police until April 2017, despite being raised by hospital consultants in June 2016. Hospital executives moved Letby to clerical duties after the initial concerns. The inquiry, which began in 2020 and is expected to conclude by late 2025, aims to determine why the concerns were not promptly reported to authorities.
