LONDON (AP) — An inquiry into an English hospital where a neonatal nurse was convicted of murdering seven babies and trying to kill seven others has begun as her supporters push to clear her name. But the inquiry’s head made it clear Tuesday that it would not be a review of Lucy Letby’s conviction, but a deeper look into failures that led babies to repeatedly be harmed at the Countess of Chester Hospital. Justice Kathryn Thirlwall said an appeal court had reviewed the convictions and rejected Letby’s claims. Supporters of the nurse are pushing for a legal review of the evidence used against her.
