One person’s complaint, after the death of a family member and filed with the Narcotics and Drug Control Investigation Bureau, triggered the investigation of a nurse who today has amazed many in the United States after she confessed that he tried to kill 19 patients murder . Mostly older adults.

The American authority learned this from that complaint Heather Pressdee “was involved in incorrectly administering insulin.” The news is disturbing and the US media is repeating this unfortunate story.

The woman, from Pennsylvania, has been linked to the deaths of a total of twenty patients. Those people were under his care. “She is accused of injecting lethal doses of insulin into some people,” Noticias Telemundo reported.

Heather Pressdee, 41, admitted “harming, with intent to murder” several patients aged between 43 and 104, taking advantage of short-staffed night shifts.

The nurse is already accused of killing two patients in her care with lethal doses of insulin and now faces even more criminal charges.

These deaths occurred in the rehabilitation centers where she provided her services as a nurse.

Citing the Pennsylvania attorney general’s office, Telemundo indicated that Pressdee allegedly administered excessive amounts of insulin to 19 patients — some with diabetes, some not — at five centers between 2020 and 2023.

The nurse’s macabre plan

The accusations against him are serious, El Diario NY describes. The nurse “is charged with two counts of first-degree murder, 17 counts of attempted murder and 19 counts of neglect of dependents.”

It’s just as disturbing to know the news as it is to know why he did it. According to New York media, Pressdee “stated that he felt bad about the patients’ quality of life and hoped they would just go into a coma and die.”

In El Diario NY they indicated that the nurse took on the night shifts. Apparently he took advantage of the few staff that were there during those hours.

Pressdee allegedly “took steps to ensure that his victims died before the shift change. “This prevented them from being sent to hospital, where their plan could be discovered through a medical examination.”

But they say more: Pressdee “if he suspected a victim would survive a megadose of insulin, he would administer a second dose or inject air into the patient to ensure his death, as court documents allege.”

The press reported that Heather Pressdee was charged in early November 2023.

This woman, the American network noted, worked as a nurse at Concordia Rebecca Residence; Belair Healthcare and Rehabilitation; Quality Life Services – Chicora; Premier Armstrong Rehabilitation and Nursing Center; and Sunnyview Nursing and Rehabilitation Center.

Some colleagues recalled that on one occasion she was “disciplined in preparing her insulin doses.” His license is suspended in the middle of this legal process. He spends his days in the Butler County Jail. The media emphasized: he is not entitled to bail.
