The Investigation Unfolds
Piecing Together the Puzzle
The police investigation uncovered a chilling pattern. Medical records showed a spike in deaths and near-death incidents during Allitt’s shifts. With forensic analysis, the presence of unusual insulin and potassium levels in the deceased children pointed to foul play. The evidence against Allitt was mounting, painting a picture of premeditated murder.
The Smoking Gun
One of the key pieces of evidence was the discovery of Allitt’s nursing logs, which meticulously recorded her actions. These logs, combined with testimonies from her colleagues and the toxicology reports, formed an ironclad case against her. The once trusted nurse was now the prime suspect in one of Britain’s most horrific medical murder sprees.
