Never-before-seen Lucy Letby footage reveals child killer at key moments of saga
A documentary airing soon will lift the lid on her arrest and share scenes never seen before to the public – during her arrest at home and questioning
The Investigation of Lucy Letby teased in Netflix trailer
A Netflix special that will lift the lid on the arrest of child killer Lucy Letby is set to be released in weeks.
The documentary will go behind the scenes of the investigation into convicted child killer Lucy Letby, delving into the whole process from arrest to conviction and will show the moment she was arrested at home.
It will feature never-before-seen footage of the former nurse during her arrest and questioning.
Scenes will even show the moment she was arrested inside her own home.
The film will also include new testimony from police and contributions from the mother of one of the victims.
It is the first time a family member involved in the prosecution has spoken in a documentary.
The Investigation Of Lucy Letby will release globally on Netflix on Wednesday February 4.
Letby, 36, from Hereford, is serving 15 whole-life orders after she was convicted of murdering seven infants and attempting to murder seven others, with two attempts on one of her victims, between June 2015 and June 2016.
On Tuesday it was confirmed Letby will face no further charges over additional deaths and collapses of babies that were investigated by police.
Cheshire Constabulary passed additional evidence to prosecutors last year for consideration.
She was linked to eight potential offences of attempted murder and one offence of murder at the Countess of Chester Hospital.
Another two allegations of attempted murder and murder were linked to one child at Liverpool Women’s Hospital.
But now it has emerged she will not face any further charges.
The former nurse has always protested her innocence.
Lady Justice Thirlwall’s inquiry report into how Letby was able to commit her crimes on a hospital neonatal unit is due to be published this year.
The latest information on the Thirlwall Inquiry website states it is now due “after Easter 2026”.
The statement reads: “The inquiry has written to core participants with an update on the timetable for the final report. Work on the report is ongoing, and publication is scheduled for after Easter 2026.
“A further update on the timetable will be provided at the end of February 2026.”
Letby, originally from Hereford, was convicted across two trials at Manchester Crown Court.
