Beverley Allitt: A Nurse Who Murdered Children

The Downfall Begins


Suspicion Arises

Despite her cunning, the pattern of unexplained cardiac arrests could not go unnoticed forever. Colleagues and doctors began to grow suspicious as the frequency of these incidents increased dramatically during Allitt’s shifts. Each case was marked by similar symptoms, pointing to a deliberate hand behind the deaths.

Caught in the Act

A critical turning point came when doctors noticed that the incidents occurred only when Allitt was on duty. An internal investigation was launched, and it soon became clear that these tragedies were not coincidental. The hospital’s administration took the bold step of involving the police, leading to a deeper probe into Allitt’s activities.
