Alleged killer kept notes

A nurse accused of murdering seven babies and attempting to murder 10 others wrote “I am evil I did this” on a Post-it note found by police at her home, a court was told. Lucy Letby, 32, was arrested in July 2018 and on trial at Manchester Crown Court charged with 22 attacks on 17 babies between June 2016 and June 2018. Letby denies the allegations. Nick Johnson KC concluded his four-day opening statement for the prosecution by telling jurors about notes recovered from Letby’s home in Chester. Officers found paperwork relating to many of the children whose deaths and collapses feature in the case. Letby denies keeping them as “souvenirs”.
