Back at Manchester Crown Court for the murder trial of nurse Lucy Letby today. We're expecting to hear more evidence in relation to the collapse of Child G. Ms Letby is accused of attempting to murder the girl three times at the Countess of Chester Hospital in 2015
Defence counsel Ben Myers KC cannot make today's sitting, therefore the court is hearing statements of agreed evidence from various former colleagues of Ms Letby being read by the prosecution
A former colleague of Ms Letby, who cannot be named for legal reasons, said in her statement that she and staff on the neonatal unit had been 'surprised' by how 'very poorly' Child G became in early September as she had previously been 'stable'
Jury are now being shown an instructional video of how a ventilator works
Further instructional videos showing how suction tubes/heart rate monitors work are being shown to the court
Court adjourned till tomorrow. Not many updates today as Ms Letby’s leading defence counsel could not be present. Back tomorrow
