Court artist sketch by Elizabeth Cook of Lucy Letby appearing in the dock at Manchester Crown Court Image: PA Images A MOTHER “completely trusted” nurse Lucy Letby when she left her “screaming” son in her care, a court in England has heard.The Crown say she attacked the newborn baby, referred to as Child E, shortly before his mother walked into the intensive care room of the neo-natal unit at the Countess of Chester Hospital.
She added: “It was a sound that should not come from a tiny baby. I can’t explain what the sound was. It was horrendous. More of a scream than a cry.” The witness later cried as she told jurors: “I knew. I knew there was something wrong and I had known from leaving him but I left.”Child E later deteriorated and his mother was later brought back to the unit where she sat outside in the corridor as medics unsuccessfully attempted to resuscitate him.She said: “I was asked if I would like to bath . At that time I didn’t feel like I was able to. I was just broken and I couldn’t so Lucy Letby bathed him in front of me in the neo-natal unit.
