Murder by Nurse: The Victims of Kristen Gilbert
Listen now
Description
Apparently hard-working and intelligent mother of two and registered nurse, Kristen Gilbert, was living the life of a middle-class soccer mom. She had a good job, a loving husband, and two children. She seemed a lot like the other Massachusetts suburbanites in her neighborhood, but she held sinister secrets that eventually bubbled to the surface. Beneath the façade of an ordinary working mother, Kristen lived a life of duplicity. Before her 30th birthday, she was arrested on suspicion of serial murder: injecting patients at the hospital where she worked with lethal doses of epinephrine.  These were vulnerable victims and Kristen’s motives were a mystery, perhaps even to herself.  It may have been as simple as a need for attention and excitement.  When a healthcare professional takes a life, it’s a special kind of evil.  Trained and relied upon to protect and restore health and virtually holding their patients’ lives in their hands, a nurse who kills betrays the most basic trust while preying on the sick.
