Lucy Letby, age 33, was convicted last week of murdering 7 babies and attempting to murder 6 more while working as a nurse on the Neonatal Unit at the Countess of Chester Hospital in England. I sat down with one of the UK's most respected forensic psychologists, Dr Naomi Murphy, who has 25 years experience working with violent and sexually violent offenders, to ask some questions like:
- How can a cold, callous killer also be described by some as gentle, kind and timid?
- What could her motive have been?
- How do prison staff manage to separate their potential personal feelings about Lucy Letby from their professional duty to care for her and protect her?
- Can somebody like Lucy Letby ever be rehabilitated?
