On the heels of multiple new murder charges brought in 2018, here's an updated edition of the classic account of arguably the most shocking and insidious case in the history of medicine: the crimes of one nurse that were hidden by a hospital for years. It's 1980, and Genene Jones is working the 3 to 11 PM shift in the paediatric ICU in San Antonio's county hospital. As the weeks go by, infants under her care begin experiencing unexpected complications--and dying--in alarming numbers, prompting rumours that there is a murderer among the staff. Her eight-hour shift would come to be called "the death shift." This strange epidemic would continue unabated for more than a year, before Jones is quietly sent off--with a good recommendation--to a rural podiatric clinic. There, eight children under her care mysteriously stopped breathing--and a 15-month-old baby girl died. In May 1984, Jones was finally arrested, leading to a trial that revealed not only her deeply disturbed mind and a willingness to kill, but a desire to play "God" with the lives of the children under her care.
