Ted Bundy's car?.

My Mum told me they picked up a hitch hiking Rasta when they went to Grenada on holiday one year and "He was lovely". I've never hitched or picked up hitchers other than people I know.
 
Ted Bundy's car?.
Yes.

I worked for years with a guy , still in contact occasionally, who told me that his dad's best mate in the navy turned out to be a serial killer years later , and his dad had to testify something or other in court. Obviously he had no idea !! But there were a few victims and apparently the murderer ended up revealing locations of one or two buried victims not found yet. And my friend was not one for bullshit or hyperbole. Bizarre

As soon as I read Navy and serial killer I knew who it was,I have worked on Gibraltar a few times and heard the story.

It was Kelly passing the buck because she was fearful of losing her own job. Some things have happened with a member of staff at the hospital I'm currently working in and I've now got it in my contract as well as on a recorded interview that I'm refusing to work with that staff member. A senior ward Sister has also denied access to that staff member. Nothing as serious as direct harm coming to patients but HR have also decided not to sack this person but 'retrain' them instead. Large organisations are scared of unions.
 
From today's Guardian: while some believe Lucy Letby is innocent of harming and murdering babies, the police are looking into her every interaction with babies in her previous placements.

Lucy Letby questioned in jail over more baby deaths at two hospitals

Police began a review of the 4,000 babies she nursed during her career, which dates back to January 2012 and includes two training placements she carried out at the Liverpool Women’s hospital as a student nurse.

It is understood she was questioned for the first time about cases at the latter hospital, as well as baby deaths and collapses at the Countess of Chester hospital.

Cheshire police said on Tuesday: “We can confirm that, following agreement, Lucy Letby has recently been interviewed in prison under caution in relation to the ongoing investigation into baby deaths and non-fatal collapses at the Countess of Chester hospital and the Liverpool Women’s Hospital. Further updates will follow.”

The Thirlwall public inquiry is looking into the events surrounding Letby’s crimes. It is expected to sit at Liverpool town hall until early 2025, with findings due to be published by late autumn next year.

Last month, Dr Stephen Brearey, a consultant paediatrician who raised concerns about the nurse told the Thirlwall inquiry he believed Letby “didn’t start becoming a killer” in June 2015 and that she may have had earlier victims.
