The prosecution claims Lucy Letby transformed documentation to make it look like if she were caring for another child when Child D collapsed on 22 June 2015.
The child collapsed 3 times prior to she passed away.
“I have actually not falsified any documentation,” Letby says.
“Child D passed away due to the fact that you injected her with air, didn’t you?” Nick Johnson KC, for the prosecution, asks.
“No,” Letby responds.
“I did not provide her air.”
“Did you believe the documentation would not connect you to Child D at the time she collapsed?” Mr Johnson asks.
After asking him to rephrase the concern, Letby says: “No, I had other infants. I wasn’t looking after Child D.”
“Did you take the choice to state ‘No I didn’t remember her’ to prevent answering concerns?” Mr Johnson asks.
Letby says she attempted to be as cooperative as possible with the authorities.
The prosecution explains that Letby has actually formerly said she has a good memory for names.
Mr Johnson attempts to continue with questioning however Letby demands a break.
Before a break is given, Mr Johnson initially asks Letby about her previous claim that it is possible to take hand and footprints from a child prior to they pass away.
(Letby formerly informed the court this is what she was assisting Child C’s moms and dads do, which is why she remained in the room as he was passing away.)
But a file revealed to the court says these are typically taken after death. Letby says it is not uncommon for it to be done prior to a kid passes away.
“You should not have been having anything to do with Child C at this moment, should you?” Mr Johnson says.
