The similarities between Beverly Allitt and Lucy Letby are striking. Quite rightly, Lucy Letby received 14 whole life orders and will die in prison, whereas Beverly Allitt received 13 life sentences meaning she only needs to serve a minimum of 30 years in prison. She was sentenced in 1993 so is already eligible for release on parole.

BA was convicted of 4 counts of murder, 5 counts of attempted murder and 6 counts of GBH on babies, using the same methods as LL - injecting insulin and air. Absolutely awful.

AIBU to think her sentence should be changed to a whole life order and she should also be made to die in prison alongside LL?

Her crimes were so heinous though. I can’t believe she didn’t get a whole life order originally.

I don’t think you can go round changing everyone’s sentences just because someone else got a longer or shorter one.

i dont think so
i guess it is up to the families involved in ba case
