You should not suffer any detrimental treatment for doing so, as long as you follow the correct processes. In the Clark case, the expert witness Sir Roy Meadow declared that the chances of Mrs Clarks’ babies having both died as a result of cot deaths was 73 million to one against. Remember the t-shirt ‘Join the British Army: go to interesting places, meet interesting people, and kill them‘? The establishment wants the public to believe that, since the Shipman case, it is now easier to detect when a health professional kills (or sexually assaults) a patient.

She was the first whistleblower to raise concerns about substandard patient care in a the North Staffordshire NHS Trust. Son of surfboard shaping pioneer, Bob Mctavish, it would only seem natural that he would take on the family business. Legacy of a lecture on Sister Jessie; THE INSPIRATION 'DECENT YOUNG MAN' WAS SERIAL KILLER WHO SHOWED NO REMORSE FOR HIS MURDER SPREE. When a medical professional is charged with murdering a patient, it sends shockwaves through the system.More shocking still, the paper reported that the nurse, “like an oddsmaker at a bookmaking establishment,” had taken bets from other staff members as to what time certain patients would die. Initially she was linked to nine incidents in which children either died or required resuscitation, in a single year, and it was claimed that all had occurred during her shifts. The fact the investigation took so long and it took numerous attempts to charge her means to me there's no smoking gun. And when I say in the world I mean: in England, Scotland, or Wales; in Canada, Germany, France; in Norway or Denmark … Perhaps even in America (they seem to have more real serial killers there, but perhaps that is because they have the death penalty).

The story of Elizabeth Holmes and Theranos is an unbelievable tale of ambition and fame gone terribly wrong. Sister McTavish worked in a geriatric ward at Ruchill Hospital, Glasgow, and was accused of murder after the sudden death of Mrs Lyon. Detective Chief Superintendent Chris Gregg described Norris as "extremely arrogant" and without remorse for killing Doris Ludlam, 80, Bridget Bourke, 88, Irene Crookes, 79 and Ethel Hall, 86, while he worked at the Leeds General Infirmary (LGI) and the city's St James's Hospital. Because people had made the wrong diagnosis or were not aware of the full facts even if they were right there in the patient’s dossier (had no time to go through that stack of paper yet). Despite DeSalvo's full confession and imprisonment, authorities would never put him on trial for the actual murders.The spectre of a serial killer has now taken possession of the mind of the first doctor who got alarmed and he or she rapidly spreads the virus to his close colleagues. What appears to have happened in both cases is described by Professor Hutton as “diagnostic suspicion bias”. Jesse met Nathan Toleman in late 2012 and it was clear that the new venture Top Paddock was that platform. McTavish, now known as Jessie Gordon, is believed to have been the inspiration for serial killer nurse Colin Norris.
