It's a page two type story, which some Germans will miss but it's a curious piece told by NDR (regional NW German public network).
Back around the 2005 to 2008 period....cops got tipped off on a male German nurse, and maybe he'd poisoned a number of patients. Authorities by 2008, had brought up murder charges for two dead folks, and sentenced him off for fifteen years. What he'd done....was use the active ingredients of Ajmaline, sotalol, lidocaine and amiodarone.
These would create a heart situation....with a life-threatening cardiac arrhythmia. He'd then resuscitate the individual....bringing some back to life, and others.....well....they didn't make it.
After that episode....a fair number of folks were not completely satisfied that it was only the two dead. So there's been a 10-year investigation going on, with dead folks dug up and toxicology tests done.
Today, the authorities say they have enough to charge him with an additional 96 people dead. In fact, there could be MORE, but in a lot of cases.....folks were cremated and you couldn't prove much of anything. More court activity will occur, and the general feeling is that there's enough evidence now that will make the judges permanently hold the guy (41 years old) forever.
It's the kind of story that you just shake your head over. He intentionally kept trying bring on heart attacks with folks....just for a chance to show off.
