Two doctors started trying to find a cause for the mysterious collapses, and began connecting the dots after spotting that Letby had been on shift for each of the incidents, the Mirror reports.

However, after raising their concerns, Letby reportedly wrote a statement which was read out by her parents, John and Susan, to the hospital's then chief executive, Tony Chambers, claiming that she was being bullied and victimised on the neonatal unit.
