A note found in the former home of nurse Lucy Letby stating "I am evil, I did this" and 'HATE' has been released to the media on direction of the trial judge.
The Post-it note was shown to the jury this morning as the prosecution concluded its opening remarks where it outlined what it alleges was a series of attacks on vulnerable babies at the neo-natal unit of the Countess of Chester Hospital, between June 2015 and 2016.
Letby, 32, is charged with the murders of seven babies and the attempted murder of 10 others, some on more than one occasion. She denies all 22 counts and is standing trial at Manchester Crown Court.
