It has been reported that Letby will be sent to maximum security prison HMP Low Newton which houses serial killer Joanna Dennehy and a number of other dangerous criminals.
Child serial killer Lucy Letby will spend the rest of her life behind bars after being handed a whole-life order for her horrific crimes.
Experts believe she will be given 'restricted status' - the female equivalent of Category A inmate - meaning she is deemed to pose the highest-risk threat to the public. Professor Yvonne Jewkes, professor of criminology at the University of Bath, told the Telegraph: "At best, she'll be subjected to extreme bullying and intimidation. At worst, she might be in quite considerable physical danger. [...]She'll associate mostly with prison officers, her key worker in the prison, and one or two cleaners, but much of that interaction will be through the hatch in her cell door.
Inmates at Low Newton are given the opportunity to pet animals, go clothes shopping at the prison's Rags to Riches store and personalise their cells. According to an Independent Monitoring Boards report: "Prisoners have had access to these animals, often with the most challenging of prisoners giving good results in feedback surveys, which have shown that this initiative has had a calming effect.
