Deadly Nurses

[SEL2323]

From Biography Channel....

"The city of Vienna, Austria, was outraged by a spate of barbaric murders in the 1980's. They occurred not in the backstreets, but in a place of healing, inside the walls of one of Vienna's largest hospitals. Waltraud Wagner and her nursing colleagues were overworked and frustrated with a thinly-resourced health system. To ease their workload the nurses revenged patients who demanded too much of their time. The victims were all elderly, many already close to death. No one suspected anything when patients on Ward Five began to expire. Helping to evade detection, the nurses employed a cunning method of execution they called 'The Water Treatment'. To investigators, it would be a forensic first. "

They would actually hold the patients mouths open with tongue depressors and pour water down their throats until they drowned. They figured they wouldnt be found out because fluid in the lungs would be a common ailment.
