A nurse in Germany came up with a novel way to lighten his workload … he reportedly murdered 10 of his patients.

The nurse, whose name was not released, was given a life sentence in prison Wednesday after he was convicted of
murdering all 10 patients by lethal injection, and attempting to kill 27 more, according to

During the trial, prosecutors accused the nurse of trying to cut his evening workload by giving his mostly
geriatric patients doses of painkillers and sedatives in a hospital near the German city of Aachen, CNN said.

Despite his life term, by law, the nurse could be released from prison after serving a minimum of 15 years …
but that’s highly unlikely because of the severity of the crimes, according to a spokesperson for the Aachen
court. The nurse can appeal his verdict.

And get this … German media outlets report … police are investigating other suspicious incidents involving
the nurse during his career.
