"Justice Served: Fate of Former Missouri Respiratory Therapist Who Killed Two Hospital Patients Revealed"

Former Missouri respiratory therapist Jennifer Hall has been sentenced to 18 years in prison for the 2002 poisoning deaths of two patients. Hall, who wore an "I don't f---ing care" hoodie in her booking photo, pleaded guilty to reduced involuntary manslaughter charges as part of a plea deal. The victims had insulin and a muscle relaxant in their systems, which hadn't been prescribed by a doctor. Hall was also found guilty of attempted assault for putting the same concoction in the breathing treatment apparatus of another patient. She may be responsible for more suspicious deaths during her time at the hospital.

Respiratory Therapist Jennifer Hall Receives Maximum Sentence for Patient Deaths

Former Missouri respiratory therapist, Jennifer Hall, has been sentenced to 18 years in prison after pleading guilty to reduced first-degree involuntary manslaughter charges in connection with the deaths of two hospital patients. The deaths occurred in 2002 at Hedrick Medical Center in Chillicothe, where Hall worked. The case was revived after an analysis of tissue samples found unauthorized drugs in one patient's system. Hall had denied any involvement in the deaths, but some staff believed she was responsible due to her proximity to the patients and access to pharmaceuticals.
