Former nurse Lucy Letby has been sentenced to another whole life term for trying to kill a premature baby girl.
The 34-year-old is already in jail for murdering seven babies and attempting to murder six others at the Countess of Chester Hospital between June 2015 and June 2016.
On Tuesday, she was found guilty of trying to murder another girl, known as Baby K, following a retrial.
Letby had refused to go up to the dock to be sentenced to 14 whole life terms last August, but was in the dock earlier to be handed her 15th.
Her original murder trial jury acquitted her of two counts of attempted murder, and there were six further charges on which jurors could not decide, including that concerning Baby K.
