The ones making the complaints were even made to apologise to her at one point.

2 murders were unanimously guilty, 5 majority guilty. Don’t know what it was with the attempted murder guilty verdicts
Hell of a lot of evidence and such to sift through, plus it's hard to reconcile the heinous nature of those acts with the person sitting in front of you I imagine.
I'm a long way removed from any level of expertise or insight, but I expect the whole thing has been incredibly traumatic.

One of the 'survivors'. Utterly heartbreaking stuff:
One of the babies was the size of an adult hand, weighing just over 535g (1lb), when she was born 15 weeks premature and given a 5% chance of survival. Letby tried to kill the girl twice – the first attempt just hours after she and the family had marked her 100th day of life with a celebratory cake, and the second on what would have been her due date two weeks later. Letby was found not guilty of a third count of attempted murder against her.
The little girl, known as Child G, was diagnosed with quadriplegic cerebral palsy after the attacks. Now eight, she is nil by mouth and requires 24-hour care.

Yes, that's my understanding.
Cheers. Less suspicious if they were her targets. Certainly adds more weight to her being guilty when convicted as that is very much premeditated and a calculated risk.
Lucy Letby whistleblower says babies would have lived if hospital had acted sooner
Exclusive: Dr Stephen Brearey accuses Countess of Chester trust of failing properly to address concerns about nurse who killed babies
Nurses clubbing together? The consultant seems to suggest that as the management of the hospital were from nursing backgrounds.
Ooof, some accusation that.
There is a misconception about how at risk premature babies are - my sister is a neonatal specialist, primarily dealing in substance addicted newborns. I caution that I try and follow the stuff that she tells me but I have the attention span and intellect of a mudskipper.
However, prem. babies have a very, very good survival rate in the UK. I'll be certain to speak with her about this case when next catch up, but I have a real impression that the number of deaths should have been alerting to a number of professionals.
She tried to kill one baby one day old .....
So, so, so disturbing.
Has any sort of motive been established? Obviously she is a deranged, evil psycopath but who wakes up one and decides to murder new-borns randomly? Was she unable to have her own?

She fought to nurse on that unit ...
It seems they were. But the exec board acted properly strangely.
Sounds like your all over the place, from your opening post tbh ..?
Oh I'm not saying the number shouldn't have been alerting; I was more saying it must surely looks less out of the ordinary for a prem baby to suddenly die/collapse than an on-time baby.
