The fact that Countess Hospital management actually protected Lucy and persecuted her accusers instead is the most disgusting thing of all. Those hospital executives should be in jail right alongside her for aiding and abetting a murderer.

Pretty sure it's worse for a hospital's reputation that they try to cover up and protect a murderer, rather than owning up and taking all possible steps to have them found out and punished by a court.
Look at churches, the Catholic Church being the most prominent example. The coverup worked for centuries. Functionally it still is working. They lost members, but that was already happening. There have been virtually no consequences for all their horrific crimes.
You'd think that. But sadly hospitals often cover up things like this. Cuz the news of people being murdered by your staff will get out. But the news about the hospital actually doing something about it is often far lesser known. Resulting in people going do a different one instead.
There are very likely quite a few undiscovered health care serial killers on the loose, if they mostly focus on the elderly and keep the frequency reasonable, a hospital will either not notice or once there are suspicions they are asked to resign and can just find another job and start over again. This same hospital might have done that before, murdering that many babies was too much to hush up though.
sorry but they didn't ignored it, they actively covered for her and threated anyone that wanted to take action! i hope families sues hospital AND each stupid individual involded
The first story is tragic and infuriating! A lot of lives could’ve been saved if only the doctors’s complaints and worries were taken seriously. I can only image how the initial joy of bringing a new life into this world turned into instant pain and shock for the parents.
welcome to the uk when the leaders of hospital care about reputation more than innocent lives im in the uk btw and of note that psycho needs to be put down
@@snaky1107Agreed, she does. Just looked up if y'all have the death penalty, it's a shame y'all don't bc it would definitely adhere in this case. Have a great day and stay safe. 🤙
@@snaky1107 nah that’s how it is in America, especially in the VA. My mother actually worked on a case where a serial killer would kill veterans on her floor. My mother investigated after the fact to fire the people who knew/noticed things but didn’t do shit. I think the killer was Reta Mays?
I had some nasty tempered nurses in my delivery room. I was the only mom on the whole floor that refused to let my baby stay with the nurses in another room. They still took my baby away 3 times and would never replace the sock back on her foot. Btches.
Melissa’s story is heartbreaking but it’s so sweet that she wants to renew her vows so her true parents can be present 🥹 I hope they can live happily together too.
Unfortunately, how the hospital handled Lucy Letby is *extremely* common in hospitals. Charles Cullen, an American serial killer, was much the same: he would kill patients (mostly elderly) and the deaths would stop when he was either on vacation or moved. Coworkers would even joke about it and there is evidence multiple hospitals knew about it and gave him the option to quit or they would get police involved, so of course he left. And the hospitals never reported it and one even actively covered up their knowledge of his crimes. Why? Lawsuits. And it still happens to this day. I have a lot of family in the medical field who watch doctors and nurses do criminal acts and are either put on "admin duty" or allowed to "pursue other offers of employment". And the worst part? Most of these hospitals never face serious punishment.
Yes, it's infuriating. In my country there was a whole friends group of killer nurses preying on elderly patients and it's very likely that there were suspicions by other staff but nobody did anything until they were overheard talking about their murders in a cafe like it's the most mundane thing in the world to them, someone in the cafe called the police, not the hospital.
The entire hospital should’ve been shut down as well. The public who resides there shouldn’t have an ounce of faith in the staff and the hospital, after what took place there.
The British media reacted to the Lucy Letby case like they were completely unaware a woman can kill. She's not even Britain's first serial killer nurse.
And America had Michael Swango, who's coworkers were so suspicious of him that they called him Double-0 Swango behind his back because he treated his medical license like a license to kill, and administrators kept kicking it under the rug to avoid lawsuits. And Harold Shipman before that.
Despite being in the UK, a lot of the Lucy Letby stuff actually passed me by. I had no idea she had killed so many babies. Absolutely shocking. RIP to all the victims.
Same here, I certainly never heard about it until the last couple of weeks! - considering how long this had all been going on I find it very strange indeed!
@@LadyHeathersLairOh God, here we go again. What he did was awful, if he did it, because it's awfully funny that they only said something when he got internet famous. But do you have proof he did anything like it again after the age of seventeen?

@@Ashannon888Did she say she paid an adoption fee or did she actually say she bought her? Was buying children legal in the 70s in the US? A baby isn't a pet...
@@Ashannon888you adopt from an orphanage, not strangers. that is literally just common sense. if you pay someone for a child and take it, you didn't adopt that kid, you kidnapped them still. the money changing hands doesn't matter if it's not with an adoption agency.
That first case is absolutely haunting.. The hospital definitely needs to be held accountable for this too. They’re worried about the reputation of the hospital 🤦♀️
The worst thing about it is that hospital management had knowledge about what might have been happening but allowed her to continue to work as a nurse in the hospital which is hugely negligent and incompetent on their part and they really should be charged for it
I cannot imagine the frustration of the doctors that raised the alarm about Letby, who were only trying to protect children, only to be told to apologise to her and not be heard and have to watch children die
Omg, imagine having been made to apologize to someone like the nurse in story 1 by self-serving managers before everything came out...I'd be livid, especially after everything came to light. The managers need to be held accountable, no holds barred.
I am thankful for the divers who do such difficult work and take nothing for it. There is nothing I can say, except that it restores my faith in humanity. They deserve much recognition.
Lucys friends still stand by her as they believe she couldn’t do something like this. People aren’t always what they seem on the outside. They need to realize that
Also, that nurse actually inserted herself into the families grieving process a ton (or tried to 'be there' for them if the babies didn't die the first time she tried). Like, to a creepy and uncomfortable extent, according to some of the mothers. Then stalked the families FB pages. I think she was trying to get attention as the sweet, loving nurse that got the families through their grief, and was looking at their pages for some kind of "we couldn't have gotten through it without her support" type posts.
the investigators have tossed the idea that she had a “hero complex” around, like she would murder these babies and then turn around and show the world the grieving nurse who supported the families through the process and become a hero
@@l_rob420she literally spells out her true motives in her ramblings in that note. She was jealous of these people because she was alone and didn’t think she would ever have a family and be happy like them. It was literally spite and hatred that drove her to do it because she saw their lives as better than hers and she wanted to rob them of their joy. Her being around them after was more likely her revelling in their sadness and stalking their socials would be for the same reason. She was contented by the misery that she caused as if it made her feel better about her own situation.
The Angel of Death cases are especially frightening because people, even adults, are so vulnerable in hospitals or under the care of a medical caretaker. The medical personnel are often seen as the "authority" and are supposed to know how to protect patients. It's especially scary for those of us who may have family or other loved ones in the care of a hospital or caretaker.
Lucy Letby is a classic example of how looks can be deceptive she looks so innocent in the photos but the reality was very different in a very very dark way
It's why white women get significantly lesser sentences for the same crime as a racial minority male. It's actually quite infuriating if you look up the stats on sentence lengths for the same crime based on what the person who commits the crime looks like.
I don't think this was a simple case of deceptive looks, she's on the more (morbidly) interesting side of someone like Jeffrey Dahmer. Completely fine and trustworthy on the outside, but a monster inside. I'm also saying this because a lot of people are not very good at judging others, but those deceptive looks can only fool a few and for a very limited period of time, while this case is much worse.
It's bizarre that the hospital just wrote everything off as coincidence, especially considering the killer nurse in Italy had occurred only a few years earlier.
@@FartSniffer365it was on purpose bc they didn’t want to get in trouble. They were trying to avoid a lawsuit. Just evil. Glad folks went to the police regardless.
It should be bizarre, but sadly I think its more common than we know. So many cases have come forward in the last 20 years, including Dr's and nurses. Hospital after hospital, nursing home after nursing home, passing on killers in scrubs ,to scrub again.
Letby’s face has been haunting all media channels in the U.K. for the last few days. It’s not understatement to suggest people here are in shock from this case.
The Legby story is making the rounds. It’s horrible how she made efforts to kill siblings as though she desired to do as much damage to people. The hospital should be sued into oblivion. They protected this monster to an insane degree.
"She didn't look like the type of person who would commit such horrendous, unspeakable crimes" well that makes me curious, what is that type of person supposed to look like? The reason why so many people get away with horrors like this is that our society tends to believe that nice-looking, clean-cut people aren't capable of such monstrous acts, even though we are constantly given proof that this is simply not true. Will we ever learn?
If you listened to the rest of the sentence, you would’ve heard that he was referring to her social life and reputation. She was very social and outgoing, likeable and sweet in nature. All of that goes against psychology and decades of studies around people who commit such acts. That’s why she didn’t seem like that type of person
@@gunnarswenson4505 Yes, because Ted Bundy was so socially inept and awkward... there comes a point when even psychology fails when it comes to telling us the real reasons why these people do what they do
Exactly. If this is how blatant someone has to be to get caught, just imagine how many killer doctors and nurses are out there right now with nobody suspecting a thing.
The truth is that the police does not even hawe any divers working for them in most countries, they entirely rely on volontary or hired in tec divers, they really should thank those guys insted of acting like children, those policemen did the right thing and actualy helped the family of the accident victim by helping the divers, hats off to everyone involved that helped to solve the problem!
I've said this before, and I'll say it again. There should be NO statute of limitation on crimes like murder, manslaughter, kidnapping, SA etc. It's one thing to let someone get off without even a slap on the wrist for stealing some shit, but it's a WHOLE other level of fucked up when you can steal a child and not be punished for it, and there's been MORE than one case where a serial killer has gone free because they weren't discovered soon enough.
I'm pretty sure murder has no statute of limitations..and it seems these days, pedos are being punished for acts committed 2 decades ago, which is great. Theft. Meh ok I cam see that. Same with selling drugs. But anything that has a VICTIM, a physical victim..shouldn't have a statute.
Actually in the US there is no limitations on murder it can take 80 years and they will arrest an old person for a murder they did when they were 20 but the older a murder the less likely it is to be solved
@@user-lr7dk7mt2w You... do realise that the world is bigger than the US, right? And on top of that, not all killings are "murder" and some states DO, in fact, have SoLs on manslaughter, vehicular homicide, etc. So no. You can, in fact, kill someone (in the "right" way) in certain US states, and have the timer run out on punishing it (and that's without getting into SA, kidnapping, etc).
@@JustAnotherBuckyLover I do realize the world is much bigger then the US yes I also realize laws in different countries are different and there are some forms of murder that do on fact have limitation on how long before they can no longer make an arrest my point and the only thing I said was murder itself has no statute of limitations I do however agree that sometimes even if they can prove who did it they won't go after the guilty party for multiple and often terrible reasons
@@user-lr7dk7mt2wYeah, and I'm very glad that's the case. One fairly recent example was the Golden State Killer, whose identity was uncovered through advanced DNA technology and who was arrested in 2016 despite not having killed and/or raped anyone for over 30 years.
Oh God, the first case sent shivers down my spine.I am a mother and I couldn't bear the thought of hearing that my newborn baby passed away, not to mention finding out that it was actually killed by a nurse that was supposed to take care of him...
Shockingly, I've heard that the hospital's actions are NOT uncommon, and that often in events of suspicious deaths revolving around one particular nurse, that nurse is just let go. No police involvement. No warning for the nurse's next employer.
Unfortunately, it’s all too common. I’ve read many accounts of killer medical personnel, and a common factor is suspicions being waved off and not taken seriously, and the “suspect” simply being dismissed and working at another facility. Wash, rinse, repeat.
Yeah...I knew what happened with Lucy Letby (good riddance to her; I'm glad she's going to rot in prison) and cannot thank you enough for the warning. Every time I hear that story I'm filled with rage and sadness. Thanks, Lazy.
Yup she is not just a child killer but a newborn killer who have only lived for weeks max. That's probably going to up the ante in terms of how much the other inmates will target her@@sylverscale
The hospital executives who tried to cover up the murders need to be charged as well! Or fired and fined, something! Their attempt to cover it up is jaw-dropping. Imagine: outwardly 'normal,' successful people having the downright sociopathic discussion of covering up mass murder simply to cover their own asses (and keep the money flowing?)
The second story is so heartbreaking. I am just glad that they found each other again before anyone of them passed. They might have lost all this time but I hope they get to experience so many good things from now on.
the last story hits a bit close; my dad died in a river crash, and part of that is never knowing if it was an accident, or if he drove in on purpose. It's a weird place to be after a death, knowing it happened but not knowing if it was the person's choice or not. I hope for Dale's family, that they can find peace in every reality that this loss could be coming from. Its been about a decade since my dad's passing & my family probably still wonders if it was drunk driving, self termination, or just a loose gravel road and poor conditions. We of course, love him either way- but this world where anything could have happened is a weird one to be in.
The first story reminds me of the Angels of Death in Vienna who have murdered many patients, including a distant relative of mine whose death is still officially _natural causes_ At some point pretty much everybody in the hospital joked about them being serial killers, but no actions were taken! By the time, the truth could no longer be ignored, most cases could no longer be investigated! They just accused them of the deaths they could prove and called the many other deaths coincidence....
As a man planning to start a family, I quake. For humanity. I wept. Her diary note was bone chilling. Something that truly shakes your foundations, 'the force of a genuine blow' to the point of immense sorrow. Momentarily, destabilizing my entire emotional core.
I just hope she gets the "treatment" she deserves in jail. Weird psycho. So should her managers. I actually would have hoped her to get pregnant and lose her baby. I just hope she gets the taste of her medicine some day. Poor, poor babies and their parents. Kids who were left blind/with learning disabilities. Poor children :( just because their nurse happened to have personal issues. It just angers me way too much. I am not yet a mother and can't imagine what the parents went through. But I hope they found peace somehow :/
In every Lazy Masquerade video, with the conclusion of each story I find myself thinking, "please let there be another story..."😅 I never want the video to end, because I'm so engrossed in the depth of info provided and the captivating manner it's presented. Thank you, Lazy, for your top notch work!❤
It's jarring to think of Lucy's psychology. Under investigation, she still couldn't stop herself. Someone else had brought up the fact that some children survived, and that they think that was deliberate- some kinda psychopathic limit testing. Her mother wailing & yelling " take me!!" when Lucy was found guilty, and then her&her parents skipping out on her sentencing date told me everything i needed to know. This isn't a case of a severely abused person w a lifetime history of trauma, no-the opposite, in fact. Lucy was born sick, her parents only child. They doted on & smothered her into adulthood, and enable her, they're perfect little angel, still, as she rots behind bars. Life in prison doesn't feel like justice here. Lucy had it all & threw it away, wreaking havoc & ruining countless lives on her way down. The people who ignored her murder spree should also be held accountable. God bless those babies & their families 😢❤
Countless parents have been let down its truly shameful the conduct of that hospital and even more disgraceful that they haven't been removed from their positions
11:14 telling the parents of a dead newborn "sorry I couldn't be there to say goodbye" is such a weird thing to say to them. That should have been a red flag as well.
They really need to do away with the Statute of Limitations. It sickens me that you can rape someone or murder someone, or commit some other horrible act, wait ten or twenty years and then just be allowed to walk away because "whoops, time's up!".
@@necessaryevile I remember seeing a case from Japan about a woman who killed her family I think and then went on the run for 14 years. The case itself had a statute of 15 years, and if she managed to last that long and evade detection there would be literally nothing that could be done, she'd be, legally, able to get away with murder. But in her 14th year, she became sloppy, the police tracked her, captured her, and she cracked under interrogation. I believe it was a case covered on this channel. Hence why I made my comment in the first place. Thank God there's no limit for the US.
Sexual assault cases should have the statute of limitations extended due to the advances in genetic research. The legal revisions keep monsters behind bars.
My heart goes out to the parents, especially the ones who had issues conceiving. I work as an EEG Tech and let me tell you, the NICU nurses I have come across do NOT play about those babies. You breath wrong over them and the staff is ready to jump you. It’s disgusting how she was able to get away for so long
It's amazing how much Melanie/Melissa looks like she did as a baby. As soon as you showed her adult photo I shouted out loud "THAT'S HER! It's her! Look at her eyes!" She has the exact same eyes, no question in my mind they're the same person. So amazing that they were able to find her after all this time, and before they passed away. 💜
My stomach was boiling with rage the whole time I was listening to the nurse's case. Bliss all the precious little angels who died by her cruel hands.. may they find kind and gentle hands in heaven.
Every time I hear about every little life taken by Lucy Letby, it makes me thankful for the nurses and doctors who took care of my son when he came into the world… you never know who you’re dealing with. My heart goes out to the families of those little ones
i think about this all of the time too. sometimes investigators will collect evidence that they don’t have the technology to analyze now, but they know it will be possible to analyze in the future. lots of cold cases before dna analysis have been solved this way.
She should have been forced to attend her own sentence and be forced to look her victims parents in the eye to make her realise the pure evil that runs through her veins
"The most fragile, cowardly people in our society just happen to be bestowed with the most inordinate amount of power and privilege. What a reckless combination."
I think Letby liked to create an emergency where she could try and save the babies to make herself look like a hero to her colleagues for all the ones she killed she would try and make a scenario where she would also save then got carried away. Absolutely disgusting.
I agree. I think she started out with the intention of making these premature newborns ill, so she could rescue them and feed a hero complex. Then she took it too far and ended up killing her first victim, and she got a rush out of it. Then she continued on her killing spree until she was finally fired and arrested. This is a very demented, sick, evil woman.
I get why the Letby stuff is being so talked about but at the same time it angers me so much that she's getting attention for this, when attention seems to be her key motivation in the first place. I also understand why the babies names are being kept hidden, but they're the only ones deserving of attention and being known.
@ribs3910 Literally started my thing with "I get why". I understand it needs to be talked about. But she Literally wants attention. Just like a child doesn't care if attention is good or bad, any attention is a reward. And right now Letby is getting attention from all over the world. I wish there was a way for it to be done where her name and face get to fall away into nothingness and only the actions and victims get any focus. Have her remain a monstrous nobody and then go behind bars without the notoriety. To hear of the crimes but not the person who did them because their name and face don't deserve the space it takes to be remembered. It just feels wrong to basically reward this stuff.
@CheeseBrie She would talk about it a lot with coworkers and insert herself into stuff regarding the deaths, effectively hover around the parents and keep watching them online etc, there's far deeper coverage out there. She wanted to be noticed for her sacrifices and efforts to "Go above and beyond" from what it seems. To be important and wanted and needed. You'd have to know the conversations with other workers and stuff. Bring it up first, change shifts when she didn't need to to "Be there to help". Was very much about "Notice me".
the only thing that would be gained from making their identities od the infants public, would be unwanted attention for the parents. if something horrible happened to you, you'd rather not have the entire country know about that whilst you're mourning. its not like the infants would gain anything from any sort of attention cause well they're dead
That second story, the newly found Melissa sure hated her upbringing to the point of changing her name back to Melissa. Most stories of infants being bought or taken care of by the kidnapper usually have a good upbringing. This is the second time I hear the implications that it wasn't all that great. I hope she lives the rest of her life in happiness.

I live about 40 minutes from where lucy letby lived. Evil women! I also cried at the second story! Poor women, being lied to. Couldn’t imagine how her parents felt all them years I’m glad the third story was solved! His family deserve closure, I guess we will never find out how he ended up there
Case 1. Those poor parents my heart goes out to them. Her sentence will never replace their loss but i pray that this judgment brings them a small measure of peace.
So weird to see the Letby case covered by Lazy, I have family that worked alongside her and was born at the countess myself. Feels surreal now the case has concluded- such a scary case!
I googled my full name and found nothing but other people with parts of my name. My paranoia from all my years of being online really paid off 😤 Also goddamn you really started with that demon in human skin. Just seeing her picture pisses me off.
While it's great that Melissa was reunited with her actual parents, it's tragic that she was raised by two people who most likely abused her and didn't care about her like her actual parents did. Regarding the last story, if you're a cop, and you get mad at somebody for helping to find a missing person, you don't deserve to be a cop.
Im happy the Melisa story has a much more happier end than a lot of the other stories we hear of children being taken. Its sad she & her real parents lost all of those years but its amazing that shes not only alive but well as well & reunited with her parents as well now
With the 3rd story. Down under Dan came to the US and worked with AWP to learn what Jared does to help him find people. When he went back to Australia, Mike from AWP came with him to help out. Dan has helped so many people that is is nice to see him receive help.❤
One of my close friends is a NICU nurse and I’ve had to comfort her in those times where the babies or mothers didn’t survive. I don’t think I could even share this story with her. 😢
Stefanie Harlowe made a long deep dive into the Lucy Letbe case, if someone is interested. How she inserted herself into the lives of the grieving young parents etc.. Really gut-wrenching.
First story That pathetic excuse for a human being and every single person that let it get away with its actions should all be put *UNDER* the jail Nothing less
Unfortunately it appears that Melissa Highsmith's kidnapper might not face the consequences of her actions as Texas has a 5 year statute of limitations for kidnapping and the US government might have a tough time proving that the federal crime of kidnapping across state lines was violated.
This is so bizarre to me - why on earth is there a statute of limitations on such a horrific crime as kidnapping let alone a mere 5 years. I can’t imagine how Melisa and her bio family feel having gone through decades of torment and losing so much only to knew that even if the perpetrator is known to be guilty they cannot be held accountable. Disgraceful.
Melissas story makes me so happy. Stories like this never get a happy ending and although this story is beyond tragic. It ended with reunification and not death. That is a wonder.
After the atrocious crimes of another baby nurse Beverley Allitt who committed similar murders of very young babies in a British hospital in the late 1980s or mid 1990s. It was realised nurse Allitt was ON DUTY AT EVERY BABY DEATH & she was suspended & an enquiry started! She was found guilty of 6 or 7 baby deaths & pleaded insanity which was granted! Unbelievably And her life sentence carried out in a psychiatric hospital! HOW COULD AUTHORITIES NOT COMPARE LETBY WITH ALLITT? or at least suspend her until she was investigated, some of those babies may not have died if the hospital had acted quickly! This case is appalling & the hospital needs investigating! They are as culpable for these baby deaths for not acting sooner! Peace 🇬🇧👧
Kinda random but I gota say, thank you Lazy!!!! Ur vids are always top notch production!!! The volume/sound quality is always amazing!!! Idky other creators are afraid of sound quality, ppl can always turn it down but ppl can only turn it up as far as u let them
The first story infuriates me. That doctor did exactly what I he should’ve and his concerns were dismissed. Absolutely sickening. Lucy is a special kind of evil. Second story, how on EARTH is someone stupid enough to let their baby go with someone they hadn’t even seen? Pure insanity. She had no clue where that woman’s house even was! Smh 🤦🏻♀️. And Down Under Dan is a wonderful man. He’s even helped Adventures With Purpose here in the States
The first story is very tragic and sad. Those poor babies, I am very sorry for the families. And how can the hospital management keep brushing it off and refused to look further. If only the hospital had done so, she wouldn’t got chance to kill more.
the first case of Lucy Letby you would think the supervisors that tried to hide the issues would be charged with something. It astonishes me that they haven't at least been charged with some kind of recklessness charge.
Mean girls become nurses and bully jocks become cops, so I'm never surprised when a murderer or abuser is found in either profession. My husband's sister is a nurse and I'm terrified for people under her care, because she is a cold, awful person.
Much love and Appreciation for your content. You literally become the voice of the voiceless, a remembrance of a person is the same as a prayer for that person❤
They took the decision to let her sulk in her cell because they were concerned that she would act out during the sentencing, causing further distress to the victim's loved ones. Those people need comfort and closure. They don't need their moment in court being turned into a circus by a psychopath.
@adambeckett8394 She murder how many babies? Don't worry about her making a scene. They have gags and face mask for prisoners who want to act like that. I would have been pissed if I was the family, and she didn't have to face her consequences.

The coverup worked for centuries. Functionally it still is working. They lost members, but that was already happening. There have been virtually no consequences for all their horrific crimes.
You'd think that. But sadly hospitals often cover up things like this. Cuz the news of people being murdered by your staff will get out. But the news about the hospital actually doing something about it is often far lesser known. Resulting in people going do a different one instead.
It feels like it, but this sort of thing happens so often that it's probably not true
There are very likely quite a few undiscovered health care serial killers on the loose, if they mostly focus on the elderly and keep the frequency reasonable, a hospital will either not notice or once there are suspicions they are asked to resign and can just find another job and start over again. This same hospital might have done that before, murdering that many babies was too much to hush up though.
And some people say cucumbers taste better pickled.
They need to pursue charges against the managers that ignored Letby’s behavior.
This. They should all rot with her. Guarantee they are a "protected" class in Britain.
Exactement
sorry but they didn't ignored it, they actively covered for her and threated anyone that wanted to take action! i hope families sues hospital AND each stupid individual involded
@gevvramn good luck with that. The British Government protects their SHS lackeys over their own people.
That won't happen, because that would be the government investigating itself. UK healthcare is managed by the NHS.
The first story is tragic and infuriating! A lot of lives could’ve been saved if only the doctors’s complaints and worries were taken seriously. I can only image how the initial joy of bringing a new life into this world turned into instant pain and shock for the parents.
welcome to the uk when the leaders of hospital care about reputation more than innocent lives im in the uk btw
and of note that psycho needs to be put down
@@snaky1107Agreed, she does. Just looked up if y'all have the death penalty, it's a shame y'all don't bc it would definitely adhere in this case. Have a great day and stay safe. 🤙
As long as rich kids ain't dying it's fine. That's the attitude from the fat guys in suits
@@snaky1107 nah that’s how it is in America, especially in the VA. My mother actually worked on a case where a serial killer would kill veterans on her floor. My mother investigated after the fact to fire the people who knew/noticed things but didn’t do shit. I think the killer was Reta Mays?
I had some nasty tempered nurses in my delivery room. I was the only mom on the whole floor that refused to let my baby stay with the nurses in another room. They still took my baby away 3 times and would never replace the sock back on her foot. Btches.
Melissa’s story is heartbreaking but it’s so sweet that she wants to renew her vows so her true parents can be present 🥹 I hope they can live happily together too.
It’s a brilliant idea, isn’t it? Sounds like it will be very special and emotionally healing for everyone.
Unfortunately, how the hospital handled Lucy Letby is *extremely* common in hospitals. Charles Cullen, an American serial killer, was much the same: he would kill patients (mostly elderly) and the deaths would stop when he was either on vacation or moved. Coworkers would even joke about it and there is evidence multiple hospitals knew about it and gave him the option to quit or they would get police involved, so of course he left. And the hospitals never reported it and one even actively covered up their knowledge of his crimes. Why? Lawsuits. And it still happens to this day. I have a lot of family in the medical field who watch doctors and nurses do criminal acts and are either put on "admin duty" or allowed to "pursue other offers of employment". And the worst part? Most of these hospitals never face serious punishment.
Yes, it's infuriating. In my country there was a whole friends group of killer nurses preying on elderly patients and it's very likely that there were suspicions by other staff but nobody did anything until they were overheard talking about their murders in a cafe like it's the most mundane thing in the world to them, someone in the cafe called the police, not the hospital.
Wow so they get protected just like police officers yet we’re always told how much respect both of those professions deserve …
It’s really angering and scary, people in healthcare should be the best of us
@@c.w.8200 Wow, that sounds absolutely horrific. What country are you talking about if I may ask?
Your healthcare system must be made for the pigs then
For the first case, “new management” isn’t enough. The old managers should have been tried for aiding and abetting.
The entire hospital should’ve been shut down as well. The public who resides there shouldn’t have an ounce of faith in the staff and the hospital, after what took place there.
The British media reacted to the Lucy Letby case like they were completely unaware a woman can kill. She's not even Britain's first serial killer nurse.
There's been three others!
@@TheManInBlueFlames Names?
@@fishandchipsupper Beverly Allitt is a close match.
And America had Michael Swango, who's coworkers were so suspicious of him that they called him Double-0 Swango behind his back because he treated his medical license like a license to kill, and administrators kept kicking it under the rug to avoid lawsuits.
And Harold Shipman before that.
@@danielmclellan1522 Swango was so ballsy he poisoned the other nurses.
Despite being in the UK, a lot of the Lucy Letby stuff actually passed me by. I had no idea she had killed so many babies. Absolutely shocking. RIP to all the victims.

Because if the woman who raised Melissa thought she was dealing with an official adoption and was merely paying the fee, why would she be guilty of anything?
@@Ashannon888Did she say she paid an adoption fee or did she actually say she bought her? Was buying children legal in the 70s in the US? A baby isn't a pet...
@@Ashannon888you adopt from an orphanage, not strangers. that is literally just common sense. if you pay someone for a child and take it, you didn't adopt that kid, you kidnapped them still. the money changing hands doesn't matter if it's not with an adoption agency.
That first case is absolutely haunting.. The hospital definitely needs to be held accountable for this too. They’re worried about the reputation of the hospital 🤦♀️
The worst thing about it is that hospital management had knowledge about what might have been happening but allowed her to continue to work as a nurse in the hospital which is hugely negligent and incompetent on their part and they really should be charged for it
Only one has been suspended the others retired. One of them moved to France.
Actually doctors did bring up concerns but were told to mind their own business and apologise!
@mitchwalsh1920they definitely need to be made an example of to deter others.
Not only let her work, some of them offered/recommend her for a higher position
Every single person that covered for Lucy should be held accountable for what happened.
Should be, but won't be. Hospitals cover for abusive nurses and doctors all the time and nobody ever gets punished for it.
I cannot imagine the frustration of the doctors that raised the alarm about Letby, who were only trying to protect children, only to be told to apologise to her and not be heard and have to watch children die
Omg, imagine having been made to apologize to someone like the nurse in story 1 by self-serving managers before everything came out...I'd be livid, especially after everything came to light. The managers need to be held accountable, no holds barred.
Name and shame.
Nothing will happen. Good luck trying to get a hospital to do anything about abusive nurses.
I am thankful for the divers who do such difficult work and take nothing for it. There is nothing I can say, except that it restores my faith in humanity. They deserve much recognition.
They have a channel on tiktok 😊
Lucys friends still stand by her as they believe she couldn’t do something like this. People aren’t always what they seem on the outside. They need to realize that
Did they just ignore her rambling note confessing to it?
They're just 💩 people
Also, that nurse actually inserted herself into the families grieving process a ton (or tried to 'be there' for them if the babies didn't die the first time she tried). Like, to a creepy and uncomfortable extent, according to some of the mothers. Then stalked the families FB pages.
I think she was trying to get attention as the sweet, loving nurse that got the families through their grief, and was looking at their pages for some kind of "we couldn't have gotten through it without her support" type posts.
I couldn't handle it past reading her diary note.
the investigators have tossed the idea that she had a “hero complex” around, like she would murder these babies and then turn around and show the world the grieving nurse who supported the families through the process and become a hero
@@l_rob420she literally spells out her true motives in her ramblings in that note. She was jealous of these people because she was alone and didn’t think she would ever have a family and be happy like them. It was literally spite and hatred that drove her to do it because she saw their lives as better than hers and she wanted to rob them of their joy. Her being around them after was more likely her revelling in their sadness and stalking their socials would be for the same reason. She was contented by the misery that she caused as if it made her feel better about her own situation.
The Angel of Death cases are especially frightening because people, even adults, are so vulnerable in hospitals or under the care of a medical caretaker. The medical personnel are often seen as the "authority" and are supposed to know how to protect patients. It's especially scary for those of us who may have family or other loved ones in the care of a hospital or caretaker.
Lucy Letby is a classic example of how looks can be deceptive she looks so innocent in the photos but the reality was very different in a very very dark way
It's why white women get significantly lesser sentences for the same crime as a racial minority male. It's actually quite infuriating if you look up the stats on sentence lengths for the same crime based on what the person who commits the crime looks like.
@@SconnerStudios A lot of your racial minority males have previous convictions
I don't think this was a simple case of deceptive looks, she's on the more (morbidly) interesting side of someone like Jeffrey Dahmer. Completely fine and trustworthy on the outside, but a monster inside. I'm also saying this because a lot of people are not very good at judging others, but those deceptive looks can only fool a few and for a very limited period of time, while this case is much worse.
@@J_P_B Many of the studies/findings out there specifically mention first-time offenders for the same crime. Night and day.
@@SconnerStudioshere we go 🙄
People always expect serial killers to broadcast bad vibes, but I think this clearly proves you should never judge a book by its cover
It's bizarre that the hospital just wrote everything off as coincidence, especially considering the killer nurse in Italy had occurred only a few years earlier.
It is truly bizarre that the hospital wrote everything off as "confidence" 😂

@@BabyRibs this is so hurtful. I have fixed my errors.
@@FartSniffer365it was on purpose bc they didn’t want to get in trouble. They were trying to avoid a lawsuit. Just evil. Glad folks went to the police regardless.
It should be bizarre, but sadly I think its more common than we know. So many cases have come forward in the last 20 years, including Dr's and nurses. Hospital after hospital, nursing home after nursing home, passing on killers in scrubs ,to scrub again.
Letby’s face has been haunting all media channels in the U.K. for the last few days. It’s not understatement to suggest people here are in shock from this case.
It's haunting af. Kinda stains the mental threads of the fabric of human reality. That's pure chaos & evil. That note. Legit insanity.

@@Set666Abominae I don't know if that's a complement or an insult. But I'll take it.
The Legby story is making the rounds. It’s horrible how she made efforts to kill siblings as though she desired to do as much damage to people.
The hospital should be sued into oblivion. They protected this monster to an insane degree.
Legby?
I wonder how safe Letby's managers feel, knowing that they covered up a child murderer.
Yeah that was my first thought, if I was one of those parents I’d be paying them home visits for certain
"She didn't look like the type of person who would commit such horrendous, unspeakable crimes" well that makes me curious, what is that type of person supposed to look like? The reason why so many people get away with horrors like this is that our society tends to believe that nice-looking, clean-cut people aren't capable of such monstrous acts, even though we are constantly given proof that this is simply not true. Will we ever learn?
If you listened to the rest of the sentence, you would’ve heard that he was referring to her social life and reputation. She was very social and outgoing, likeable and sweet in nature. All of that goes against psychology and decades of studies around people who commit such acts. That’s why she didn’t seem like that type of person
@@gunnarswenson4505 Yes, because Ted Bundy was so socially inept and awkward... there comes a point when even psychology fails when it comes to telling us the real reasons why these people do what they do
Scary to think, if she did this say once or twice a year instead of so often, she might never have been caught.
So scary
I wouldn't be surprised if it does happen. Very scary and saddening to think about.
Exactly. If this is how blatant someone has to be to get caught, just imagine how many killer doctors and nurses are out there right now with nobody suspecting a thing.
The truth is that the police does not even hawe any divers working for them in most countries, they entirely rely on volontary or hired in tec divers, they really should thank those guys insted of acting like children, those policemen did the right thing and actualy helped the family of the accident victim by helping the divers, hats off to everyone involved that helped to solve the problem!
I've said this before, and I'll say it again. There should be NO statute of limitation on crimes like murder, manslaughter, kidnapping, SA etc. It's one thing to let someone get off without even a slap on the wrist for stealing some shit, but it's a WHOLE other level of fucked up when you can steal a child and not be punished for it, and there's been MORE than one case where a serial killer has gone free because they weren't discovered soon enough.
I'm pretty sure murder has no statute of limitations..and it seems these days, pedos are being punished for acts committed 2 decades ago, which is great. Theft. Meh ok I cam see that. Same with selling drugs. But anything that has a VICTIM, a physical victim..shouldn't have a statute.
Actually in the US there is no limitations on murder it can take 80 years and they will arrest an old person for a murder they did when they were 20 but the older a murder the less likely it is to be solved
@@user-lr7dk7mt2w You... do realise that the world is bigger than the US, right? And on top of that, not all killings are "murder" and some states DO, in fact, have SoLs on manslaughter, vehicular homicide, etc. So no. You can, in fact, kill someone (in the "right" way) in certain US states, and have the timer run out on punishing it (and that's without getting into SA, kidnapping, etc).
@@JustAnotherBuckyLover I do realize the world is much bigger then the US yes I also realize laws in different countries are different and there are some forms of murder that do on fact have limitation on how long before they can no longer make an arrest my point and the only thing I said was murder itself has no statute of limitations I do however agree that sometimes even if they can prove who did it they won't go after the guilty party for multiple and often terrible reasons
@@user-lr7dk7mt2wYeah, and I'm very glad that's the case. One fairly recent example was the Golden State Killer, whose identity was uncovered through advanced DNA technology and who was arrested in 2016 despite not having killed and/or raped anyone for over 30 years.
Oh God, the first case sent shivers down my spine.I am a mother and I couldn't bear the thought of hearing that my newborn baby passed away, not to mention finding out that it was actually killed by a nurse that was supposed to take care of him...
It's creepy how Lucy's mouth doesn't really move in the interrogation clip. It sorta lends more to her overall bizarre and robotic personality.
That robot lower jaw tho 😂
I thought the footage actually froze
It’s flat affect.
I know several women who talk exactly like this. You can tell who the future serial killers are.
Shockingly, I've heard that the hospital's actions are NOT uncommon, and that often in events of suspicious deaths revolving around one particular nurse, that nurse is just let go. No police involvement. No warning for the nurse's next employer.
Medical malpractice is the third leading cause of death in the US according to at least one study.
Unfortunately, it’s all too common. I’ve read many accounts of killer medical personnel, and a common factor is suspicions being waved off and not taken seriously, and the “suspect” simply being dismissed and working at another facility. Wash, rinse, repeat.
Yeah...I knew what happened with Lucy Letby (good riddance to her; I'm glad she's going to rot in prison) and cannot thank you enough for the warning. Every time I hear that story I'm filled with rage and sadness. Thanks, Lazy.
She won't have an easy time in prison. Child killers will never have, and she deserves every bit of whatever the other inmates will inflict upon her.
Yup she is not just a child killer but a newborn killer who have only lived for weeks max. That's probably going to up the ante in terms of how much the other inmates will target her@@sylverscale
Melissa's story is so touching. I'm happy her and her parents got reunited after so many years.
The hospital executives who tried to cover up the murders need to be charged as well! Or fired and fined, something!
Their attempt to cover it up is jaw-dropping. Imagine: outwardly 'normal,' successful people having the downright sociopathic discussion of covering up mass murder simply to cover their own asses (and keep the money flowing?)
They retired. One is now in France. The senior nurse has been suspended.
They should be fed to dogs
@@willbilly8738You really wish to condemn the poor dogs with such horid meal?
The second story is so heartbreaking. I am just glad that they found each other again before anyone of them passed. They might have lost all this time but I hope they get to experience so many good things from now on.
the last story hits a bit close; my dad died in a river crash, and part of that is never knowing if it was an accident, or if he drove in on purpose. It's a weird place to be after a death, knowing it happened but not knowing if it was the person's choice or not. I hope for Dale's family, that they can find peace in every reality that this loss could be coming from. Its been about a decade since my dad's passing & my family probably still wonders if it was drunk driving, self termination, or just a loose gravel road and poor conditions. We of course, love him either way- but this world where anything could have happened is a weird one to be in.
The first story reminds me of the Angels of Death in Vienna who have murdered many patients, including a distant relative of mine whose death is still officially _natural causes_
At some point pretty much everybody in the hospital joked about them being serial killers, but no actions were taken! By the time, the truth could no longer be ignored, most cases could no longer be investigated! They just accused them of the deaths they could prove and called the many other deaths coincidence....
As a father of three kids under 4, that first story gives me so much rage it's incredible.
As a man planning to start a family, I quake. For humanity. I wept. Her diary note was bone chilling. Something that truly shakes your foundations, 'the force of a genuine blow' to the point of immense sorrow. Momentarily, destabilizing my entire emotional core.
@@ledarbyromeo9667ok
I just hope she gets the "treatment" she deserves in jail. Weird psycho. So should her managers. I actually would have hoped her to get pregnant and lose her baby. I just hope she gets the taste of her medicine some day. Poor, poor babies and their parents. Kids who were left blind/with learning disabilities. Poor children :( just because their nurse happened to have personal issues. It just angers me way too much. I am not yet a mother and can't imagine what the parents went through. But I hope they found peace somehow :/
In every Lazy Masquerade video, with the conclusion of each story I find myself thinking, "please let there be another story..."😅 I never want the video to end, because I'm so engrossed in the depth of info provided and the captivating manner it's presented. Thank you, Lazy, for your top notch work!❤
It's jarring to think of Lucy's psychology. Under investigation, she still couldn't stop herself. Someone else had brought up the fact that some children survived, and that they think that was deliberate- some kinda psychopathic limit testing. Her mother wailing & yelling " take me!!" when Lucy was found guilty, and then her&her parents skipping out on her sentencing date told me everything i needed to know. This isn't a case of a severely abused person w a lifetime history of trauma, no-the opposite, in fact. Lucy was born sick, her parents only child. They doted on & smothered her into adulthood, and enable her, they're perfect little angel, still, as she rots behind bars. Life in prison doesn't feel like justice here. Lucy had it all & threw it away, wreaking havoc & ruining countless lives on her way down. The people who ignored her murder spree should also be held accountable. God bless those babies & their families 😢❤
Countless parents have been let down its truly shameful the conduct of that hospital and even more disgraceful that they haven't been removed from their positions
A really scary thing about Letby's story is that had she had any self-control, she might have gotten away with it.
11:14 telling the parents of a dead newborn "sorry I couldn't be there to say goodbye" is such a weird thing to say to them. That should have been a red flag as well.
They really need to do away with the Statute of Limitations. It sickens me that you can rape someone or murder someone, or commit some other horrible act, wait ten or twenty years and then just be allowed to walk away because "whoops, time's up!".
There's no statue of limitations for murder in the US
Capital crimes like murder have no statute of limitations. At least in US.
Yeah, sure. Go look up what Eileen Franklin did to her dad then come back and say that.
@@necessaryevile I remember seeing a case from Japan about a woman who killed her family I think and then went on the run for 14 years. The case itself had a statute of 15 years, and if she managed to last that long and evade detection there would be literally nothing that could be done, she'd be, legally, able to get away with murder. But in her 14th year, she became sloppy, the police tracked her, captured her, and she cracked under interrogation. I believe it was a case covered on this channel. Hence why I made my comment in the first place. Thank God there's no limit for the US.
Sexual assault cases should have the statute of limitations extended due to the advances in genetic research. The legal revisions keep monsters behind bars.
My heart goes out to the parents, especially the ones who had issues conceiving. I work as an EEG Tech and let me tell you, the NICU nurses I have come across do NOT play about those babies. You breath wrong over them and the staff is ready to jump you. It’s disgusting how she was able to get away for so long
It's amazing how much Melanie/Melissa looks like she did as a baby. As soon as you showed her adult photo I shouted out loud "THAT'S HER! It's her! Look at her eyes!" She has the exact same eyes, no question in my mind they're the same person. So amazing that they were able to find her after all this time, and before they passed away. 💜
Melisa announcing to renew her vows with her biological parents there to witness made me tear up :( im so happy for all of them
My stomach was boiling with rage the whole time I was listening to the nurse's case. Bliss all the precious little angels who died by her cruel hands.. may they find kind and gentle hands in heaven.
Every time I hear about every little life taken by Lucy Letby, it makes me thankful for the nurses and doctors who took care of my son when he came into the world… you never know who you’re dealing with. My heart goes out to the families of those little ones
It's crazy to think how much technology has grown. Who knows what kinds of techniques people are pulling off now that the feds will get later?
i think about this all of the time too. sometimes investigators will collect evidence that they don’t have the technology to analyze now, but they know it will be possible to analyze in the future. lots of cold cases before dna analysis have been solved this way.
I see you’re Bush did 9/11 type
I’ve talked about Lucy Letby so much in criminology it’s mad, her case is so twisted it’s crazy
The ending for story 2 is heartwarming. Best of wishes for the family, hope they can enjoy their time together now.
She should have been forced to attend her own sentence and be forced to look her victims parents in the eye to make her realise the pure evil that runs through her veins
"The most fragile, cowardly people in our society just happen to be bestowed with the most inordinate amount of power and privilege. What a reckless combination."
Every time I see Lazy's face I am always amazed at how young he looks
No shit. I feel like I have been listening to him for ten years.
As a mother of a child who was in the NICU for a week, that nurse is a monster and a complete nightmare. She's where she needs to be
The idea that the thousands of “missing” people could have actually just been murdered is horrifying…
Unfortunately that’s a real possibility since they’re missing
Ever hear of the Rape of Nanking?
@@timd4524no, but your mom has
I think Letby liked to create an emergency where she could try and save the babies to make herself look like a hero to her colleagues for all the ones she killed she would try and make a scenario where she would also save then got carried away.
Absolutely disgusting.
I agree. I think she started out with the intention of making these premature newborns ill, so she could rescue them and feed a hero complex. Then she took it too far and ended up killing her first victim, and she got a rush out of it. Then she continued on her killing spree until she was finally fired and arrested. This is a very demented, sick, evil woman.
I get why the Letby stuff is being so talked about but at the same time it angers me so much that she's getting attention for this, when attention seems to be her key motivation in the first place. I also understand why the babies names are being kept hidden, but they're the only ones deserving of attention and being known.
Shes getting the attention she deservers for everyone to Know shes a cold hearted Killer soo..
@ribs3910 Literally started my thing with "I get why". I understand it needs to be talked about. But she Literally wants attention. Just like a child doesn't care if attention is good or bad, any attention is a reward. And right now Letby is getting attention from all over the world. I wish there was a way for it to be done where her name and face get to fall away into nothingness and only the actions and victims get any focus. Have her remain a monstrous nobody and then go behind bars without the notoriety. To hear of the crimes but not the person who did them because their name and face don't deserve the space it takes to be remembered. It just feels wrong to basically reward this stuff.
where did you get the idea that she was doing this for attention?
@CheeseBrie She would talk about it a lot with coworkers and insert herself into stuff regarding the deaths, effectively hover around the parents and keep watching them online etc, there's far deeper coverage out there. She wanted to be noticed for her sacrifices and efforts to "Go above and beyond" from what it seems. To be important and wanted and needed. You'd have to know the conversations with other workers and stuff. Bring it up first, change shifts when she didn't need to to "Be there to help". Was very much about "Notice me".
the only thing that would be gained from making their identities od the infants public, would be unwanted attention for the parents.
if something horrible happened to you, you'd rather not have the entire country know about that whilst you're mourning.
its not like the infants would gain anything from any sort of attention cause well they're dead
That second story, the newly found Melissa sure hated her upbringing to the point of changing her name back to Melissa. Most stories of infants being bought or taken care of by the kidnapper usually have a good upbringing. This is the second time I hear the implications that it wasn't all that great. I hope she lives the rest of her life in happiness.

So weird to see the Letby case covered by Lazy, I have family that worked alongside her and was born at the countess myself. Feels surreal now the case has concluded- such a scary case!
"and to these divers, that's payment enough." ❤literally melts my heart
The first story is so emblematic of the sort of managerial rot that plagues organisations today.
I googled my full name and found nothing but other people with parts of my name. My paranoia from all my years of being online really paid off 😤
Also goddamn you really started with that demon in human skin. Just seeing her picture pisses me off.
While it's great that Melissa was reunited with her actual parents, it's tragic that she was raised by two people who most likely abused her and didn't care about her like her actual parents did.
Regarding the last story, if you're a cop, and you get mad at somebody for helping to find a missing person, you don't deserve to be a cop.
Im happy the Melisa story has a much more happier end than a lot of the other stories we hear of children being taken. Its sad she & her real parents lost all of those years but its amazing that shes not only alive but well as well & reunited with her parents as well now
With the 3rd story. Down under Dan came to the US and worked with AWP to learn what Jared does to help him find people. When he went back to Australia, Mike from AWP came with him to help out. Dan has helped so many people that is is nice to see him receive help.❤
I'm in shock over how recent this is. I just saw this on the news and now here it is on your channel. Deservedly. She's an absolute monster.
You are such an underrated content provider! Love your work, per usual.
Personally, I would have just sentenced Letby to an hour in a room with the parents of her victims and left it at that.
One of my close friends is a NICU nurse and I’ve had to comfort her in those times where the babies or mothers didn’t survive. I don’t think I could even share this story with her. 😢
Thank you for the time stamp and ability to skip to the next story. As a parent of a NICU graduate, I just couldn’t stomach the first one.
24:03 that hit me in the gut more than I expected tbh. Hope all goes well for them all moving forward!
Stefanie Harlowe made a long deep dive into the Lucy Letbe case, if someone is interested. How she inserted herself into the lives of the grieving young parents etc.. Really gut-wrenching.
First story
That pathetic excuse for a human being and every single person that let it get away with its actions should all be put *UNDER* the jail
Nothing less
that spreadsheet showing the nurse schedule was AWESOME for visualization! Please continue with these kinds of visual aides!
That was evidence from her trial, but I agree they are a fantastic inclusion
My God, every psychopaths dream apology letter written on their behalf. 🙄
It's relatively rare for people to be given whole life tariffs as they are reserved for the very worse offenders in the UK.
Unfortunately it appears that Melissa Highsmith's kidnapper might not face the consequences of her actions as Texas has a 5 year statute of limitations for kidnapping and the US government might have a tough time proving that the federal crime of kidnapping across state lines was violated.
He already said this in the video?
This is so bizarre to me - why on earth is there a statute of limitations on such a horrific crime as kidnapping let alone a mere 5 years. I can’t imagine how Melisa and her bio family feel having gone through decades of torment and losing so much only to knew that even if the perpetrator is known to be guilty they cannot be held accountable. Disgraceful.
Watching Lazy feels like being a part of cult where we eagerly gather around to witness his charisma
Yessss, I’m hear for it until he asks us to murder someone. Ok…maybe after that, too. 😂
Melissas story makes me so happy. Stories like this never get a happy ending and although this story is beyond tragic. It ended with reunification and not death. That is a wonder.
After the atrocious crimes of another baby nurse Beverley Allitt who committed similar murders of very young babies in a British hospital in the late 1980s or mid 1990s.
It was realised nurse Allitt was ON DUTY AT EVERY BABY DEATH & she was suspended & an enquiry started!
She was found guilty of 6 or 7 baby deaths & pleaded insanity which was granted! Unbelievably
And her life sentence carried out in a psychiatric hospital!
HOW COULD AUTHORITIES NOT COMPARE LETBY WITH ALLITT?
or at least suspend her until she was investigated, some of those babies may not have died if the hospital had acted quickly!
This case is appalling & the hospital needs investigating!
They are as culpable for these baby deaths for not acting sooner!
Peace

Tony Chambers, Ian Harvey, Alison Kelly, Sue Hodkinson were the exects that covered for Lucy Letby are getting a trial this year.
Kinda random but I gota say, thank you Lazy!!!! Ur vids are always top notch production!!! The volume/sound quality is always amazing!!! Idky other creators are afraid of sound quality, ppl can always turn it down but ppl can only turn it up as far as u let them
The first story infuriates me. That doctor did exactly what I he should’ve and his concerns were dismissed. Absolutely sickening. Lucy is a special kind of evil. Second story, how on EARTH is someone stupid enough to let their baby go with someone they hadn’t even seen? Pure insanity. She had no clue where that woman’s house even was! Smh 🤦🏻♀️. And Down Under Dan is a wonderful man. He’s even helped Adventures With Purpose here in the States
The first story is very tragic and sad. Those poor babies, I am very sorry for the families. And how can the hospital management keep brushing it off and refused to look further. If only the hospital had done so, she wouldn’t got chance to kill more.
the first case of Lucy Letby you would think the supervisors that tried to hide the issues would be charged with something. It astonishes me that they haven't at least been charged with some kind of recklessness charge.
the sad thing about UA-cam divers, for every legit good one there are a couple ones where they embellish or fake content for views.
Mean girls become nurses and bully jocks become cops, so I'm never surprised when a murderer or abuser is found in either profession. My husband's sister is a nurse and I'm terrified for people under her care, because she is a cold, awful person.
Much love and Appreciation for your content. You literally become the voice of the voiceless, a remembrance of a person is the same as a prayer for that person❤
every single manager in that hospital should be trailed for accessory to murder for every death after they were warned multiple times about her.
Lucy refused to go? Lol. American courts, she would have been literally strapped to a chair and pushed her happy butt in there 😂
Yeah we are soft af over here. The perpetrators rights and feelings are the most important thing in most cases. The UK justice system is pathetic.
They took the decision to let her sulk in her cell because they were concerned that she would act out during the sentencing, causing further distress to the victim's loved ones. Those people need comfort and closure. They don't need their moment in court being turned into a circus by a psychopath.
@adambeckett8394 She murder how many babies? Don't worry about her making a scene. They have gags and face mask for prisoners who want to act like that. I would have been pissed if I was the family, and she didn't have to face her consequences.
@@Anonymousey44 I'm truly sorry for that. 😪
@@adambeckett8394 where on earth did you read that nonsense? It is totally incorrect. She REFUSED. She had a choice that she has absolutely no right to and CHOSE not to appear in court.
