Nurses Who Kill - Season 2

Season 2

The true crime series that examines the cases of killer nurses around the world is back for an all-new and exclusive second series.

Out of everyone in society nurses are the people we trust the most. They take care of us in our hour of need, they help us to get better and they all do it with a smile on their face. But what happens when that trust is betrayed; when something more sinister bubbles up to the surface? Suddenly our expectations of having our lives saved are replaced by fear and the suspicion that, in these cases, our lives are at risk.

Once again, the 10-part series includes previously unheard audio interviews with killer nurses, evidence gleaned from the facts of different cases, opinions from the experts, and dramatised action showing viewers the full, chilling stories of nurses who kill.

Efren Saldivar: The Angel of Death

A respiratory care practitioner who nursed at a Los Angeles hospital, Efren Saldivar confessed to killing 40 to 50 patients over an eight-year period. Quickly christened an 'Angel of Death', he targeted patients who were already near death. He would kill them with lethal injections of the muscle relaxants Pavulon or succinylcholine chloride or, if they were on ventilators, he would decrease patients' oxygen intake. Statistical analysis indicates that the total number of murders committed by Saldivar could be as high as 200, but no convincing physical evidence will ever be available to confirm or refute this possibility - the bodies were cremated after death long before he owned up to his deeds on the wards.

Vickie Dawn Jackson: Vengeance and Nursing Don't Go Together

Vickie Dawn Jackson was described as sweet and 'gone to fat' by locals in her small Texas town. Her first husband ran out on her after a year, her second was a drinker who brought home his friends for booze and cards nights. At school she was hardly noticed and as her classmates grew it was they who ended up with the husband, two kids and picket fence picture-book house. Was that the reason Vickie, who always wanted to be a nurse 'like Florence Nightingale', began killing off the friends and relatives of those who she knew in Nocona, Texas? Or was it because she was bipolar, jealous, just plain mean or all of the above? Either way, she killed 10 times. Texas journalist Skip Hollandsworth spent time with Nurse Jackson at her Texas jail and reveals the truth about a remarkable, and evil, woman.

Garry Davis: Press Send for Murder

Nursing home team leader Garry Davis, told his Facebook friends that ‘I hate old people' and days before two patients in his care were found dead in their beds, he predicted they would die. Those facts were enough to put him in the frame as a doctor became convinced that foul play was responsible for the deaths of these two patients. The patients, whilst suffering from dementia, were otherwise in good physical health. Davis argued that the text messages were ‘black humour'. But the judge did not believe him. He killed for the sake of it – and could not resist flaunting the power he had over the life and death of Gwen and Ryan. Davis, 27, began his sentence in 2016 and won't be due for a parole hearing until 2046.

Donald Harvey: He Did What It Took to Kill

Donald Harvey escaped justice for 20 years as he murdered his patients in any way he could. In an exclusive interview, the man who brought him to justice details just how evil Nurse Harvey was. Harvey is notable for having used numerous methods to kill, including arsenic; cyanide; suffocation; miscellaneous poisons; morphine; turning off ventilators; administration of fluid tainted with hepatitis B and/or HIV (which resulted in a hepatitis infection, but no HIV infection, and illness rather than death); insertion of a coat hanger into a catheter, causing an abdominal puncture and subsequent peritonitis. Cyanide and arsenic were his favourite methods, with Harvey administering them via food, injection, or IV. The true extent of his crimes may never be known since so many were undetected for so long. He claims to have killed 87 patients, but official estimates suggest the figure is nearer 60.
