BABY KILLER

No one but Lucy Levy knows what led her to murder and attack premature babies. Police were unable to find anything about her background, upbringing, or events that may have triggered the serial killings that began in June 2015.

Evidence After the baby died, she was cheered up and excited, enjoying the drama of the emergency in which the baby fell and lay down. If something unusual and tragic happened while she was on duty, she immediately emailed her colleagues. Be careful, they said.

Levy underwent a psychiatric evaluation and was found fit to stand trial, but she said this desire to be at the center of a crisis could be a symptom of the mental illness Munchhausen syndrome. a criminologist said in an email.

But in the absence of a clear motive, Superintendent Paul Hughes, who led the Cheshire Police investigation, explains why Levy's "confession" note explains why she has become the most prolific child murderer in modern Britain. He said he believed it was the only explanation.

"She obviously loves attention. I think she loved the attention of the process, too," said DS Hughes.

"But if we look for why she did that, then, again in her own words, 'She is wicked, and she did it.' Did she write it down when looking for a reason?A green post-it was found in her journal when police searched her home after her arrest in July 2018. Heading: "Not Enough."

Levy not only wrote in all caps, "I'm evil, that's what I did," but also scribbled, "There are no words." I'm a terrible person—I'll pay that fee every day. I can not breathe. I can't concentrate. Kill Now Overwhelming Fear/Panic. I will never have children or get married. I will never know what it feels like to have a family. despair.

"I did nothing wrong." Police investigation forgets defamation. discrimination. Victimization. Everything is too much and everything takes up my life. I hate myself so much because of this. . . I feel so alone and scared. What does the future hold? How do you get through it? How can things go on like they used to? I hate it. panic. fear. lost. I don't deserve to live I did this. why me I killed her on purpose because I am not worthy of her and I am a very bad person. I don't deserve dad and mom.

Ms. Levy claimed that the memo was not a confession and that she wrote it because she was struggling to hold herself accountable after being released from the unit in July 2016, which she actually did. I didn't go.

However, the prosecution asked the jury to read it "word-for-word," and Mr. Hughes said he believed it was Levy who intentionally left the note for police to find.He said that as of May 2017, she was aware of police investigations and had installed a shredder at Chester's home, but had destroyed notes and other incriminating papers, as well as the nurse's death. He said he didn't throw away handout sheets or medical records. her bed.

"I think she wrote it down and left us to look for it," Mr. Hughes said. “She knew the police were investigating and knew she had been deported, so she was a community suspect, not a criminal suspect.”

“I am reporting the newspapers as of May 2017,” reported Cheshire police investigating the circumstances surrounding neonatal mortality. ” She knew we were going to talk one day, so she wrote it down, either recklessly or on purpose, so she could find out.

Hughes said Levy wasn't stupid and speculated if she left the note because she wanted to be a "celebrity".

"She was intelligent and articulate, [as her nurse] she did well and she was good at doing things right when she wanted to," he added. "You can see it in the way she wrote her hospitalization record." did.

"You can trick doctors into believing your child is about to collapse, and deliberately mislead clever doctors and colleagues." Did she want you to find the note? Did she just want to write it down, or did she just want to tell the world that she was evil and that she actually did? Did she want her own fame? He didn't say why, but the motive was right there and we had to find out.

When asked if she thought Levy became a nurse to kill people or that her profession gave her a chance, Mr. Hughes replied: I think she went into her nursing career to kill her children, but her nursing gave her the opportunity to spend time with the most vulnerable people in society. Seeing what was going on and the attention she was receiving, something shone in her and she was able to move on." Criminologist David Wilson said at the heart of the crisis. said Levy's desire to stand was indicative of Munchhausen's mental disorder. “We are creating a crisis around ourselves that is a kind of Munchhausen crisis,” he said.

"Amazing stories are told about what happens when she's on duty." She says, "Look at all that happens when I'm around." said it was unclear why Levy targeted specific children, perhaps because she was alone with them as the assigned nurse, or because parents wanted to ensure they had enough sleep and food. He said it may have been because he was temporarily away from home, but once he "chosen" himself as a victim, she decided to hurt and kill. The same children were attacked repeatedly. Some died, some were not saved until they died.
