Associated Press

LONDON (AP) — An English hospital where a neonatal nurse was convicted of murdering seven babies and trying to kill seven others is facing an inquiry into how she was able to harm so many children. The examination into the deaths at the Countess of Chester Hospital begins Tuesday. Supporters are pushing for a legal review of the evidence used against Lucy Letby. But the inquiry being held in Liverpool will not review the legal basis for Letby’s convictions. It will look at how she was repeatedly able to hurt babies, how parents were treated and the culture within the National Health Service.
