British prosecutors said on Wednesday they were considering whether to bring further charges in relation to allegations around deaths at hospitals where Lucy Letby, the nurse already convicted of murdering seven babies, had worked.

Letby, 35, is already serving life in jail and will never be released after being found guilty of attacking the newborns at between June 2015 and June 2016 while working at the Countess of Chester Hospital (CoCH) in northern England.

The Crown Prosecution Service said it had received files of evidence from police relating to further possible offences at the CoCH and at a hospital where Letby had previously worked.
