Murder By Medic

Crime / Medical

They know how to kill and how to cure. Inside a hospital, at home, or maybe even next door. They are trained to save lives but also know how to take them. This is Murder by Medic. We are at our most vulnerable when ill, trusting our medics to care for us, to diagnose, to offer us treatment, to fix what's wrong. Our doctors and nurses are taught how to save lives but what happens when they decide to take lives instead? What happens when they don't cure us, what happens when they kill us? This series tells the stories of 52 medics who have murdered their patients or used their medical know-how to kill closer to home. From doctors to psychologists to dentists to nurses. Each episode delves into a different case examining the chilling true tales of medics who break the Hippocratic Oath and kill. The series pieces together the hard evidence, the means and the motive to create a full picture of the case. Told through poignant interviews with the loved ones of victims, key video and audio evidence, revelations from investigators and legal teams and insights from a distinguished panel of experts.
