On the same day she had been told her baby would be home by Christmas, one of the murder victims' mother detailed how her daughter was tortured by the killer nurse 'until she had no fight left in her.' The child, who had only been identified as Baby I, had been assaulted three times by Letby (right) before attempting on the fourth attempt. The father of two triplet boys who were killed by Letby described how their deaths 'destroyed' him both as a man and a father.' The boys' mother said she had only one photograph of her three children and concluded that Letby has 'destroyed' her life. A young girl who was left disabled, brain damaged, and blind after being assaulted by Letby would never have a sleepover, first kiss, or marry her, according to her devastated father. And parents of twins who were criticized by Letby said they never had to hold their son while he was alive. Letby murdered five boys and two girls between June 2015 and June 2016.

It's been five years since the establishment of the so-called 'Royal NHS', the integrated Health and Wellbeing Centre at Dumfries House, Scotland's cultural institute. It is said to have achieved dazzling results by offering cooking lessons, yoga, planting and harvesting, sewing, and "mindful walking." Half the couples attending the Dumfries House fertility clinic were able to conceive, according to The Mail on Sunday, although the average birth rate in the United Kingdom is only 22%. Who, then, is paying? The King has not sought foreign assistance for the first time. In the case of the Dumfries House health center, the backers are vibrant, even by Charles's standards, as Caroline Graham reported in 2021.
