LUCY Letby is set to challenge her most recent conviction for murdering seven babies and trying to kill seven more, the Court of Appeal revealed yesterday.
The nurse, 34, is serving 15 whole-life orders for her year-long killing spree while working on a neonatal unit at the Countess of Chester Hospital, Cheshire.

Court staff confirmed that Letby is bringing a bid to appeal against her conviction for one count of attempted murder in July.
Judges will consider the case at a hearing on October 24, according to court listings.
Letby previously launched an appeal to challenge her guilty verdicts for seven murders and six attempted murders, which was rejected in May.
A month later she was later sentenced to an additional whole-life order for the attempted murder of a baby girl after a retrial at Manchester crown court.
A public inquiry into the events surrounding Letby’s crimes, chaired by judge Lady Justice Thirlwall, is ongoing at Liverpool Town Hall and is expected to last into 2025.
