Convicted multiple murderer Lucy Letby has told a jury she has never intended or tried to harm any baby in her care.

Letby, 34, is on trial at Manchester Crown Court accused of the attempted murder of a baby girl, known as Child K, while she was working a night shift at the Countess of Chester Hospital's neo-natal unit on February 17, 2016.Letby was convicted last August by another jury of the murders of seven babies and the attempted murders of six others at the hospital between June 2015 and June 2016, but a verdict could not be reached on the allegation involving Child K.

Mr Myers said: "Do you remember exactly when that was?"Letby replied: " No, I can't be specific to timings."Mr Myers said: "You know the allegation, based on the evidence of Dr Jayaram, is that he says he came in and was desaturating to the low 80s and you were standing there doing nothing and no alarm was sounding, you understand that?""Yes," said Letby.
