A former neonatal nurse who k*lled seven babies in her care and tried to k*ll six others at a hospital in northern England was sentenced Monday to life in prison with no chance of release by a judge who highlighted “the cruelty and calculation” of her actions. #LucyLetby who refused to appear in court to face grieving parents who spoke of their anger and anguish, was given the most severe sentence possible under British law, which does not allow the d*ath penalty. Justice James Goss said that the number of k*llings and attempts and the nature of the m*rders by a neonatal nurse entrusted with care for the most fragile babies provided the “exceptional circumstances” required to impose a so-called “whole-life order,” which is exceptionally rare.
