TL;DR Summary

A nurse in Pennsylvania has been charged with homicide, attempted murder, aggravated assault, neglect of a care-dependent person, and reckless endangerment for allegedly killing two patients and injuring another. Heather Pressdee, who worked at a retirement nursing facility, is accused of giving lethal doses of insulin to the victims, two of whom did not have diabetes. Pressdee reportedly admitted to injecting two of the victims with insulin, saying she "felt bad for their quality of life" and hoped they would "just slip into a coma and pass away." The nursing facility has expressed shock and devastation and assured patients and their families that they are safe and receiving appropriate care.
