Lucy Letby trial: What are the charges against nurse accused of baby murders?

Sourced

The jury in the trial of murder-accused Lucy Letby is still deliberating verdicts on the 22 charges the nurse faces.

After a female juror was discharged for personal reasons last week, the remaining seven women and four men were given a majority direction by Mr Justice Goss at Manchester Crown Court on Tuesday.

The trial judge told the jury he would accept verdicts upon which at least 10 of them agree on the 15th day of their deliberations, which have so far lasted more than 76 hours.

Letby, 33, from Hereford, denies murdering seven babies and trying to murder 10 others during the course of her work on the neonatal unit at the Countess of Chester Hospital
