Authorities allege 40-year-old Heather Pressdee murdered two patients and injured a third because she thought they were “better off dead.” The Law&Crime Network’s Angenette Levy breaks down this deadly case of malpractice with Dr. Tim Gallagher, a forensic pathologist and medical examiner.

Why i dont trust doctors
I actually worked with her at other facilities and only saw her in passing between shifts. She wasn't very friendly and came off a little creepy. I'm glad she was caught. I'd have never expected something like that thou.
Awe youtube gave me help number lol. Just heard about this
She looks just like the Canadian nurse who did the same thing 10 years ago
Blimmin heck what an evil person.
Why are we all acting like this is the first time a "medical professional" has done this. It's not. It happens all the time. People need to pay attention
She’s the dictionary definition of a coward.
"She seems to be "PROJECTING" her (Own) fallacies upon others, And was too "COWARDLY!" to admit to herself that maybe "SHE!" is the one who (Should've) have Existenced…..
I always suspected that the health system could be full of these kind of workers!
Demons are walking among us
We’ve seen this before and it certainly isn’t the pretty nurses doing this. I’m guessing serious self-esteem issues.
This thing is despicable excuse for a nurse and a human being. Nothing short of a lifetime in prison for this waste of space.
Just found out my uncle was one of the men she killed..wow
Sounds a lot like Elizabeth Wettlaufer’s way of killing people. She was a nurse from Canada who killed/attempted to kill people between ‘07-‘15.
Is she an LPN or RN? Why are they not saying?
Made me think of RN Elizabeth Wettlauer from Ontario, Canada. Same thing, various nursing homes, insulin overdoses. Scary scary
What could possibly trigger a human being to be doing that?
These are the ones that were caught . Thousands of nurses aren’t caught simply because they work their way up through the ranks to become matrons. Nurses working under them are too scared of loosing their jobs if they speak up. A lot of deaths even though they look a bit suspicious are just passed off as being complications due to surgery or they put down on the report died from injuries or died of old age. The cover ups are astounding and they happen all the time. Administration don’t want to waste valuable money and resources doing autopsies and investigations so it’s easier to just put down in the report died of health issues caused by old age or succumbed to complications due to sustained injuries that may have been caused by the car accident when all the time it was negligence by the nurse or worse, murder. Suspicious deaths are covered up everyday in nursing homes, hospitals and surgeries. Take good care of your health so you never need to go into a hospital for anything. We live in a very evil world full of cover ups and deception. By the way murderous nurses are on the increase murder is up by 30% after the pandemic ended. Why this surge in killers is on the increase is probably due to the fact that mental illness is being diagnosed in more people today. There are so many people in our society that don’t look mentally disturbed it’s not something that people show on the outside and that’s why these people slip through the system and become nurses. I myself have had some scary encounters with nurses when I gave birth to my beautiful baby daughter, there were a few young jealous nurses on my ward. I had a private room all to myself and I had to stay in hospital for six days due to complications with my milk not coming through due to stress, it was a long labour. I experienced jealousy from some of the nurses and some of them manhandled me and yelled at me because I had trouble breast feeding my baby. I felt frightened and alone and I rang my husband and said to him to get our daughter and me out of this hospital that afternoon. My daughter was taken away in another room to be hand feed. I could have bottle fed her, I always questioned this and my stepsister who is a matron at another hospital questioned this as well. The reason I told my husband to pick as up immediately from the hospital was because I could hear my daughter screaming in the other room, not crying like new borns do but screaming at the top of her lungs. My heart was racing at such a high level and I was desperate with panic . When my daughter was returned to me the nurse placed her in her crib beside my bed and she was like a limp rag doll. My husband arrived immediately and picked my baby up in his arms and gentle swayed back and forth with her to get some movement going in her. We where beside ourselves with worry. My husband placed her in my arms and said stay here while he went to talk to the staff across the corridor. He got into a heated argument with the nurses and staff for treating he’s baby daughter and his wife with such heavy handedness. He got me dressed and the baby ready to leave the maternity room and yelled at the matron that he is taking he’s family home where they will be safe. I was so glad to get out of there and home with our little one. The next day my husband took the day off and we made a long appointment to see our wonderful family doctor. She took care of everything and even made house calls to see that everyone and our new born were going well. It was a frightening experience and something I will never forget. We go into hospitals thinking we are going to be treated with utmost care and respect not treated like we are dispensable objects. I think the look of utter jealousy and contempt for me and my baby was the thing that send shivers down my spine. The look of jealousy on nurses faces is the must frightening thing to see because straight of the bat it sends a signal that you are not safe . All hospitals give me the creeps. It’s not so much the building it’s the deranged unhinged nutters that work in them called nurses. By the way I am not putting all nurses in this category me and my entire family have had kind giving caregiving service from wonderful nurses it’s only a handful that are bad like in any work environments.
The facility that this happened in was not a hospital- it was a skilled nursing home. Different regulations. Scanning before administering meds – depends on the site. It is not required.
Wow shes a hot nurse.
Why does the reporter look like Susan Heffley from the long haul movie
She took that old joke too seriously. What do you give to the man who has everything?
They definitely need to look back over patients she cared for. If she feels a patient saying kill me gives her permission to actually kill them. People in extreme pain from accidents, surgeries, coming out of anaesthetic, etc often say kill me, or things to that affect. They don't literally mean it. As someone with chronic pain condition I've probably ssid a few times this month. It's scary to think some nurse might determine I'm in too much pain or not having a good enough quality of life and kill me. She shouldn't have been able to renew her license with all the issues in her work history.
It’s the culture
Bruh this is just fukin crazy
I dont understand, i really dont
An abusive nurse shouldn’t have a job in nursing!
Wasn't she killing people in a nursing home? Why can't you be honest and say this is a HATE CRIME against the elderly? Is it because the mainstream media doesn't think the elderly are worthy of living?
I was lterally tortured in the hospital in 2020. I am a compliant patient. I almost died, and was refused home care, even though it was approved. My walker with seat in it taken away from me, also approved by ins co.
Given medicine to knock me out, woke up and had other nurses massaging me trying to get me to breathe. discharged at 1130 pm to my neighbor with not enough oxygen to make it to morning. The surgeon said i wasn't ready to go home. I physically was not.
I have heard other's horror stories as well.
I thank God for the good nurses that tried to help me in there. I have ptsd from it
