Here's a story that sent shivers down my spine.

Hard to believe something like that can happen. I read about a nurse that worked at a VA hospital in MA that didn't admit it, but was found guilty of several counts of murdering her pts. She liked the excitement of a Code and medicated pt so their heart would stop and she would call a code- sometimes they made it & other times they didn't. Luckily, fellow staff menbers reported that they noticed she was usually working when the pt would suddenly go sour.
