Beverley Allitt

Beverly Gail Allitt (born 4 October 1968) is an English serial killer who was convicted of murdering three infants and an 11-year-old boy, and attempting to murder three others, and causing grievous bodily harm to a further six at Grantham and Kesteven Hospital, Lincolnshire, between February and April 1991. She committed the murders as a State Enrolled Nurse on the hospital's children's ward.

Allitt administered large doses of insulin to at least two of her victims and a large air bubble was found in the body of another, but police were initially unable to establish how all of the attacks were carried out.

In May 1993, Allitt received 13 life sentences at Nottingham Crown Court. The sentencing judge, Justice David Latham, told Allitt that she was "a serious danger" to others and was unlikely ever to be considered safe enough to be released. Allitt is currently detained at Rampton Secure Hospital in Nottinghamshire. She became eligible for release on parole after her minimum tariff of 30 years' imprisonment expired in November 2021.
