" Serial killer ", this is how the 33-year-old nurse Lucy Letby was described in Britain, who was found guilty of murdering seven babies and attempting to kill ten others while they were under her care in the intensive care unit in a Cheshire hospital.
After years of investigation she was convicted yesterday facing a heavy sentence and serious charges.
The "evil" nurse committed her inhumane acts in 2015-2016, killing the babies she was supposed to be caring for.
The scale of the abhorrence becomes even greater after the British media reveal the psychological profile of the woman through the messages she sent to colleagues minutes before going on with her act and also after the babies died mysteriously on her shift.
In her messages to colleagues, she expressed her deepest sorrow for any infant death. As she explained, the image of parents running away alone without their newborn baby in their arms made her sad.
In another message, she describes the heartbreaking reaction of a father who fell to the floor crying that his baby, whom she had previously killed with her own hands, had to be taken to the morgue. In other messages, she asks her supervisor to work overtime in her department to help.
In several messages she describes the progress of the health of the babies, who a little later, mysteriously, die.
According to British media, Letby made assumptions that turned out to be correct. For example, she described that the baby "wouldn't make it through the night". Confirmation would come some time later, when the baby was due. In another message, she says she is shocked that a healthy baby could die so soon after that. "Maybe it's fate", she concluded.
Një mesazh tjetër, i cili u përdor në gjykatë, është për një mjek. Në fakt, gjatë hetimeve kur autoritetet po përpiqeshin të zbardhnin motivin e krimeve të tmerrshme të Lucy Letby, kontakti specifik me mjekun kishte rënë në mikroskop, pasi konsiderohet e mundur që 33-vjeçari të kishte dashur t’i tërheqë vëmendjen. Në këtë mesazh, Letby duket i shqetësuar për hetimin që pediatri i departamentit dëshiron të bëjë për vdekjet e papritura të foshnjave të shëndetshme. Ky mjek i veçantë deklaron se do të bëjë gjithçka për ta mbështetur, pasi e konsideron atë si një person me moral të patëmetë dhe një infermiere punëtore, puna e së cilës nuk mund të vihet në dyshim.
In other messages, when the nurse had raised doubts, she tries to make herself the victim, saying that she is happy about her job, but irritated by the "negative" comments she hears about the way she works.
However, she herself seems to be struggling to hear good things about her work, saying that maybe it's not good enough, receiving positive comments from her colleagues.
Authorities believe it is possible that Lucy Letby was trying to attract attention in general, but in particular the interest of a married doctor with whom she had developed an intimacy. It is possible that she needed to hear good comments about her work, wanting to feel capable and boost her self-confidence somewhat.
However, people around her say they are shocked and can't believe what happened. Typical is the case of her mother, who insists that her daughter is innocent. It even seems that during the process the mother took responsibility for the crimes, saying that she should be arrested instead of her daughter. A close friend of the nurse, she also says she is devastated and suspects her friend has committed these horrific crimes. "I don't believe anything, only if he pleads guilty", she says./ SkyNews
