还记得英国那件骇人听闻的连环婴儿凶杀案吗?

凶手是一位33岁的女护士，名叫露西·莱比 (Lucy Letby) ，她在一年的时间里，以护士身份做掩护，总共谋杀了七名婴儿。这件事当时在英国，乃至全球都引起了轰动。

现在，该案件要被拍成电视剧了，将由《杀死伊芙》主演朱迪·科默(Jodie Comer )和《权力的游戏》主演索菲·特纳( Sophie Turner )领衔主演。

Two huge TV stars are among those rumoured to play child killer Lucy Letby in a drama from Line of Duty’s Jed Mercurio.

据传闻，两位大牌电视明星将在《重任在肩》的编剧杰德·默丘里奥创作的剧情片中扮演杀害儿童的凶手露西·莱比。

Now, Bodyguard creator Mercurio, 58, is set to create a televised drama about the neonatal nurse, with Killing Eve star Jodie Comer and Game Of Thrones’ Sophie Turner both tipped for the lead role.

现在，58岁的《Bodyguard 》编剧默丘里奥准备为这位新生儿护士创作一部电视剧，由《杀死伊芙》主演朱迪·科默和《权力的游戏》主演索菲·特纳领衔主演。

According to The Sun, the director will be working alongside hospital consultant paediatrician Dr Ravi Jayaram on the show, who was a whistle-blower in the Letby case.

据《太阳报》报道，该剧导演将与莱比案中的举报人、医院儿科顾问拉维·贾亚拉姆博士合作。

‘Jed sees this as an important story that should not just be chronicled in a drama but also explored,’ a source told the publication.

“杰德认为这是一个重要的故事，不仅应该在剧情片中记载，还应该深入探讨，”一位消息人士告诉该报。

The insider continued: ‘It aims to try to explain how her crimes could have gone on for so long and how others — particularly Dr Jayaram — tried to act when suspicions were raised.

这位知情人士继续说道：“该剧旨在试图解释她的犯罪行为为何持续了如此之久，以及当产生怀疑时，其他人——特别是贾亚拉姆医生——是如何行动的。

‘Bagging a high-profile name to play Letby would help give the show the attention it deserves too, but it’s not a role to take lightly.’

‘请一位大牌明星来饰演莱比将有助于让该剧得到应有的关注，但这个角色可不是能轻易出演的。’

The drama is thought to be airing on ITV1, though a release date has not been confirmed and it is unclear whether it will be a one-off show or episodic.

该剧预计将在ITV1播出，但具体播出时间尚未确定，也不清楚该剧将是一次性播出还是分集播出。

露西·莱比 (Lucy Letby) 出生在一个小康家庭，父亲是零售店老板，母亲是审计会计。她是家中独女，自小在父母的关注和宠爱中长大。

长大后的露西·莱比学的是护理学，毕业后顺利进入工作阶段。谁也想不到，这位外表无害的护士，在1年间谋杀了7名婴儿，并企图对另外6名婴儿下手。

警方在她住所里发现了大量类似于日记的字条，透露出她享受制造混乱和吸引关注的心态。她并非为杀人而当护士，但工作给了她机会去伤害最脆弱的生命。专家分析她具有反社会行为障碍特征，聪明且善于操纵。

Letby, 34, was found guilty of murdering seven babies and attempting to kill six more while working as a nurse at the Countess of Chester Hospital’s neonatal unit between June 2015 and June 2016.

莱比，34岁，2015年6月至2016年6月在切斯特伯爵医院新生儿科担任护士期间，被认定犯有谋杀七名婴儿和企图谋杀另六名婴儿的罪行。

She was given a whole life sentence in August 2023 following a ten-month trial. Letby is due to face a retrial at Manchester Crown court this month on one charge of attempting to murder a baby girl in February 2016.

经过十个月的审判后，她于2023年8月被判处终身监禁。莱比将于本月在曼彻斯特刑事法院就2016年2月企图谋杀一名女婴的指控接受重审。

Letby lodged an application to challenge all the counts in September, which was denied last month.

莱比在9月提交了一份针对所有罪名的上诉申请，但上个月被驳回。

A judge initially turned down the appeal, but Letby was later awarded the right to a full court hearing to argue the right to appeal.

一位法官最初驳回了上诉，但随后莱比获得了进行完整法庭听证的权利，以争取上诉权。

The prosecution is not pursuing a retrial on the five other charges of attempted murder, relating to four babies – two girls, Baby H and Baby J, and two boys, Baby N and Baby Q – after the jury in Letby’s trial was unable to reach verdicts.

在莱比案的陪审团无法就其他五项与四名婴儿——两个女孩，分别是婴儿H和婴儿J，以及两个男孩，分别是婴儿N和婴儿Q——相关的谋杀未遂指控达成裁决后，检方并未就这些指控寻求重新审判。

Cheshire Constabulary is continuing to review all units where Letby worked, and said in a statement to BBC: ‘During the course of the review if anything of concern medically is identified then the relevant family would be contacted by the investigation team as part of the process.’

柴郡警察局将继续审查莱比工作的所有单位，并在一份声明中对BBC表示：“在审查过程中，如果发现任何医学上令人担忧的情况，调查团队将作为该过程的一部分联系相关家庭。”
