I have a child. I read just to the part in the article about what she did and I fucking cried. I never wanna see this picture or hear about her again.

I always wonder, how many single-time murderers are there for every serial killer? Like how many nurses, doctors or other people with an opportunity just took and murdered once. How many people might get away with that?

Every serial killer has his first kill … but how many people have a first kill and then think … nah, I’d rather not do that but don’t get caught.

You can kill someone in healthcare without it being murder. People just expect some people to die.

Accidents happen if course. If it was a preventable accident it could potentially be classed under incompetence, which is kind of the medical version of manslaughter depending on the situation. But proving that would probably require another professional whistleblowing on a colleague.

I want the say that I saw a statistic saying that murder clearance rates were only about 50%. That coupled with wrong conviction rates makes one wonder.

I genuinely don’t know if that’s true or not though.

I mean… it’s pretty much impossible to know how many undiscovered murders there are. Yes, you can do autopsies on everyone who’s declared dead and then figure out how many of them were killed, but there are a lot of ways to kill a person that won’t show up in an autopsy, especially in a hospital setting.

I once had an off duty officer threaten me by mentioning the low rate of solved, and even lower convicted, murders.

That’s the kind of thing the FBI is interested in hearing. Please report it.

Since she stopped caring for patients, there has been 1 death in 7 years. There were 6 in the year while she was on duty.

I don’t know if it shows on this photo and I just can’t see it (Lemmios cuts photos off for some reason) but I read somewhere else that the nurse after Lucy that was there for the most attempted/murders were there for just 7 of the 25.

About the murders stopping, it occurred to me that if she were being set up, that would be the perfect time for the real murderer to stop - after someone else had been arrested. Clearly my latest criminal minds re-binge if affecting my brain though - so much evidence points to her it’s beyond unlikely that this is a set up/conspiracy.

Hey, Lemmios developer here, what do you mean by cutting off images? It’s a known bug (I’m not sure that’s the right word because it’s working as intended just looks odd when people embed images in the body of a post) that Lemmios will only show the begging of a text post in the main feed, but once a post is clicked on there shouldn’t be any cut off images? The image loads fine for me and I would love a screenshot of it getting cut off if you can?

Sure. Here’s an example from a post I made to !badrealestate if you want to check it in out yourself.

The first photo from the post is normal. The second photo I’d added to the “body” part of the post and it’s absolutely giant.

You can’t “scroll” on the massive photo either. That’s why I wasn’t sure if I was seeing the whole photo OP posted. I’m one of your beta testers if that helps, still using the beta and it’s updated automatically.

Was going to ask how this woman never showed signs of this possibility before this all harpooned, and then I read this “Her mother sobbed loudly and was heard to say “this can’t be right - you can’t be serious” while the families of the babies cried and gasped.” Yup, there were definitely signs before, like there always are.

By all accounts your summary shows there were no signs. What about your comment reveals any existing signs?
