Mr Gregg added: "Norris is not only a dangerous criminal but cunning in his actions, choosing times to commit his crimes carefully – being either early in the morning or at weekends when he knew senior and specialist staffs were not routinely on duty.

More than 3,000 exhibits were seized in a huge investigation, which stretched to 300 binders and included complex shift patterns, hospital security and leading medical experts in a range of fields.

Nancy Grace dives deep into the day’s most shocking crimes and asks the tough questions in her new daily podcast – Crime Stories with Nancy Grace. It was alleged that between December 2003 and February 2004, at least 17 patients suffered respiratory arrests for unknown reasons, and Geen was on duty during these incidents. Doubts have since been raised about his conviction by, among others, Prof Vincent Marks, a leading expert on insulin poisoning. The message to the police was clear: always suspect that the medical professional is guilty and look for evidence in support of that. Perhaps Norris thought the lack of solid evidence connecting him to the deaths meant he would escape prosecution.
The collection and analysis of data on cases of sudden collapse involving breathing difficulties (SCBD) is such that I do not think the evidence is of any value in assessing the frequency of patterns, hence it is not of value in making inferences as to causes. Jailing nurses like Ben Geen and Colin Norris for 30 years each serves only to send out the reassuring message to the public that the system is working when the facts suggest the opposite is true – true medico-murderers can still get away with killing patients without detection whilst innocent people are languishing in prison for crimes they did not commit. On 25 June, Norris gave Mrs Ludlam an "unnecessary" dose of diamorphine, twice the recommended level. The consultant in the hospital that night, his consultant, the consultant at the children’s hospital where he’d had his surgery and everyone else involved that night tried to identify a cause of death to avoid a PM because of how traumatic it is for the family. So I really do get why the doctors, consultants and coroner would try their best to avoid it if they could.
Whilst insulin has undoubtedly been a boon to diabetes victims, at one time it had the reputation of being both deadly and undetectable if wrongly used; even today, experts often disagree about whether it has been criminally abused, the much publicised von Bulow prosecutions in the 1980s being one example and the case of Colin Norris being a more recent one.Join true-crime experts, Rabia Chaudry and Ellyn Marsh, along with special celebrity guests as they break down their favorite true crime cases. McTavish had notably discussed with colleagues how the programme had taught her that soluble insulin would be an untraceable agent for homicide.
The concern must be a genuine concern about a crime, criminal offence, miscarriage of justice, dangers to health and safety and of the environment – And the cover up of any of these. Sometimes I find myself thinking, if she is innocent, it’s sad that she would never be able to go back to a normal life again really. Statisticians will also explain that when things are slowly changing in hospital environments – the seasons, new staff with new habits regarding how to classify events on NHS forms, new policy (for example, close down one ward to save money and get a new kind of patients on old wards) etc – the phenomenon of big gaps and tight clusters is strengthened. Upon leaving the group, Jesse has collaborated and consulted for projects in the hospitality industry. It's awful not guilty and you are letting a potential baby killer go free , guilty you are potentially sending someone who didn't do it to prison for life.Doctors may have said things to family (for example, ‘… he/ she is doing well, should go home next week’) when they really meant: ‘… this is close to the end, nothing more we can do, better to die at home’. What appears to have happened in both cases is described by Professor Hutton as “diagnostic suspicion bias”.
Despite the blood test evidence, McTavish claimed during the 15-day trial that she had only injected the patient with a placebo of sterile water.Investigations were launched but in neither case did they follow the scrupulous evidence-gathering needed to demonstrate a truly unusual pattern of events. He had arrived at this figure erroneously by squaring 1 in 8500, as being the likelihood of a cot death in similar circumstances.
