“I’m evil”: the sentence on the post-it written by the nurse accused of poisoning 7 babies

“I’m bad, it was me.” This is what he would have written on a post-it Lucy Letby, the 32-year-old nurse accused of killing seven children and trying to poison another 10 while working in the neonatal unit Countess of Chester Hospitalin Chester, North West England, between June 2015 and June 2016.

That’s what emerged from process in progress these days: the post-it would have been found in the woman’s house after her arrest. On the same note, he then wrote: “I don’t deserve to live. I killed them because I’m not good enough. I’m a horrible and mean person”, even though in court the nurse continues to deny their participation in infant deaths.

Letby was arrested at her home in Chester in July 2018. During a search of the property, investigators found documents relating to many of his alleged victims, including some post-its in which the names of some colleagues were also mentioned. Among these, also the note in which he allegedly “confessed” to a possible involvement in the case.

In the classroom, the post-it in question was also shown to those present, along with others where they could read some words, always written in large letters, such as “Hope”, “Panic”, “Fear” and “Hate”.

“Well, ladies and gentlemen, in a nutshell, it’s your job in this case. Whether or not he did these terrible things is the decision you’ll have to make once you’ve heard all the evidence,” the prosecutor said. Nick Johnson. While the woman’s defense attorney, Ben Myers, said: “We recognize the sadness and stress, and even anger, that come with accusations like these.

And again: “Lucy Letby was a nurse devoted. She made a commitment to become a neonatal nurse and what she wanted was to take care of babies. He didn’t want to hurt them in any way. He loved her work. He took great care of the children and also took care of their families.” The process continues.
