murdering seven babies and attempting to murder another six. we arejoined by our attempting to murder another six. we are joined by our correspondent anna foster who pace outside manchester crown court. that was the background there. what has been happening in there. what has been happening in the last few moments. it there. what has been happening in the last few moments.— the last few

moments. it gives you the context behind this very - the context behind this very long—running case. the first case goes back to june long—running case. the first case goes back tojune 2015, so a long process for the families involved here. the families were thanked by thejudge for their service here. the families were thanked by the judge for their service and what he described as the most upsetting and distressing case. some of the families were in the courtroom to see this case come to its conclusion. some of them had already heard verdicts on their children be delivered. 0ne heard verdicts on their children be delivered. one of the babies's family members left the court when it was finally explained by the jury that despite the fact they had deliberated for more than 110 hours, this is the 22nd day ofjury deliberations, several of the counts they were unable to reach a verdict on. this was originally a 12 man jury, as a standard during the process. in the last few weeks during deliberations one of those jury during deliberations one of those jury members was discharged for what was described as good personal reasons, meaning that 11 were remaining. thejudge said that reasons, meaning that 11 were remaining. the judge said that we reasons, meaning that 11 were remaining. thejudge said that we —— said that he would accept a majority verdict and the remaining cases. remember that there are families of children, fourfamilies remember that there are families of children, four families who remember that there are families of children, fourfamilies who have not received a verdict on which the jury was hung, despite their deliberations and the time and effort they put into this case. one of those four families they received a verdict on one of the counts for their child but a hung verdict on their child but a hung verdict on the other. this is incredibly difficult, while they wait to hear if the crown prosecution service will seek a retrial in those clients that the jury was unable to decide on. thejudges indicated he will sentence lucy let be on monday for those crimes, for those murders of seven children, the attempted murders of a further six children at the countess of chester hospital. within the last few moments we have had a statement given to us from the liverpool's women's nhs foundation trust with two lucy letby did her training. they said following the recent trial verdict are thoughts are with the parents of the victims and everyone affected. has detailed and everyone affected. has detailed a news reports and information provided by cheshire police there is an ongoing investigation relating to the full period of lucy let because my career, including training placements at liverpool women's hospital which took place between october and december 2012 and january chip every 2015. liverpool women's foundation trust has been racing with cheshire police throughout this investigation and we will continue to do so going forward. as this is an ongoing investigation, we are unable to provide any more information at this time. any further details will be shared by cheshire police in due course. anna, the statement there from the liverpool women's nhs foundation trust does make it clear how long the story goes back for. well, potentially. this is something thatis well, potentially. this is something that is being looked at notjust now but has already been looked at during the process of that investigation. the 22 charges put two lucy letby only spanned a period of one year of her nursing career. they were all murders or attempted murders that occurred between... that does not represent lucy letby�*s into her nursing career. it raises questions of course about what she was doing prior to that one year period, during periods of training or placement. we know that cheshire constabulary has been speaking more widely, we know they talked to many people who had worked with her, both in her current and previousjobs. the evidence gathering on operation hummingbird, the investigation into lucy letby�*s nursing career has been significant. at the height of that operation there were 70 police and civilian staff working on it. they said around 30,000 pages of evidence in total. that will be one of the continuing themes of the story, not just the guilty verdicts that were able —— that we are able to report to you today, but what happens next and how much more potentially lucy letty could have been responsible for. i want to bring in mcauley, danny 0'donoghue. you have been here for every day of this trial. it has been a very long trial indeed. nine months exactly from the opening statements to the jury being sent out to deliberate. i want to talk about the families who really at the
