Letby victims' lawyer calls for a public inquiry

Families of some of Lucy Letby's victims are calling for a public inquiry into her appalling crimes.

Tamlin Bolton, a lawyer speaking on their behalf has told ITV news they're also focusing on pursuing civil claims against the NHS Trust Letby worked for.

The 33-year-old was sentenced to life behind bars for murdering 7 newborns and attempting to kill 6 others at the Countess of Chester Hospital.

After her trial it emerged that several colleagues had raised concerns about Letby but were ignored - there are now calls for NHS bosses to be regulated.
