Nurse charged with capital murder after he 'intentionally injected' air into patients' catheters, killing one and leaving two in a vegetative state
A Texas nurse who was previously indicted for one murder and two aggravated assault charges has now seen his charges amended to include one for capital murder and three aggravated assault counts. 34-year-old William George Davis, formerly an employee at Christus Mother Frances Louis and Peaches Owen Heart Hospital in Tyler, Texas, was arrested this past April after he was linked to a slew of suspicious incidents in the hospital.
The patients he had been around in the past year had suffered setbacks in their recoveries, with one army veteran even dying and two others being left in a vegetative state, reports the Daily Mail. After his arrest, he was accused of tampering with the IVs of at least seven patients, with the authorities stating he intentionally injected air into the catheters of patrons recovering from heart surgery.
