A Texas nurse has been found guilty of the murder of four patients who died after he injected them with air following heart surgeries.
William Davis, 37, was convicted of capital murder by a jury on Tuesday and could now face the death penalty.
Prosecutors said he targeted seven people from June 2017 to January 2018.
Christus Mother Frances Hospital, where the attacks took place, said it hoped that the “jury’s verdict helps bring some closure to those harmed”.
The men, aged between 47 and 74, experienced “seizure-like symptoms” and died from fatal brain damage after the air was injected into their arterial lines.
