re: Texas doctor found guilty of poisoning patients by putting dangerous drugs in IV bags

That shite is terrifying, good Lord.

quote:

---

a 12-person jury found Dr. Raynaldo Ortiz guilty on all 10 counts after nearly seven hours of deliberation

---

7 hours? Seems like it should've taken 7 seconds. But either way I'm glad they did the right thing. Hopefully this evil piece of shite gets the death penalty. Being in Texas, I am hopeful.

“There’s no closure. My best friend is gone,” John Kaspar, Dr. Melanie Kaspar’s widower reportedly said shortly after the verdict. “I don’t think he ever looked me in the eye… It’s almost like you have so many emotions you can’t sift them out. You get flooded.”

Poor guy. I know what emotions I would hold at the forefront for something like this if I lost my wife due to this piece of shite.

And the worst part is this:

quote:

---

Federal prosecutors said the anesthesiologist committed the shocking crimes at Baylor Scott and White Surgicare North Dallas in retaliation for a medical misconduct probe.

---

Oh, a medical probe is happening and I don't like it, so let me go frick with/try to kill all these innocent people.

Also, I wonder how common it is for doctors to steal IV bags and take them home to "rehydrate." I assume that's a pretty common occurrence.
