Few shared traits seen in caregivers who kill
By Marie McCullough

What goes on in the minds of medical professionals who become serial killers?

Forensic experts are trying to answer that question after the arrest of Charles Cullen, the New Jersey nurse who says he killed as many as 40 patients. He has been charged with murdering one patient, and investigators are looking into deaths at 10 Pennsylvania and New Jersey hospitals where he worked.

As adults, many of them falsify their credentials or patient records. They also typically kill using readily available injectable medicines and work odd shifts in varying areas.

In one case in Indiana, "the head nurse who blew the whistle was... fired, then reinstated, but by that time had severe stress-related symptoms... . She will never work as a nurse again."

Ananova:
'Third of nurses want to help patients commit suicide'

A third of nurses think they should be allowed to help patients commit suicide, according to a survey.

One in four nurses said they had already been asked to help a patient end their life when the pain got too much, according to the poll of more than 2,700 nurses.

The survey, for Nursing Times magazine, comes as nurses start to debate the controversial issue of euthanasia.

Even more nurses - almost two out of three - said they wanted euthanasia to be legalised,...

Study Says Some Comatose Patients May Be Aware
LONDON (CWNews.com) - A new study carried out in London showed that many comatose patients diagnosed as being in a persistent vegetative state (PVS) may actually be aware of their surroundings and able to communicate.

The Daily Mail newspaper reported on Tuesday on a study carried out by the Royal Hospital of Neurodisability on 40 presumed PVS patients that 17 of them were misdiagnosed. Two-thirds of the misdiagnosed patients were thought to be in a PVS because their eyes failed to follow movement, when they were actually blind. All of them had limited movement and thus had difficulty communicating.

Dr. Keith Andrews, director of medical and research services at the hospital, warned that PVS patients "may spend a lifetime trapped in a damaged body, with poor quality of life." Lorraine Lane, one such patient, was thought to be in a PVS and her husband was applying to the courts for an order to end her life until she squeezed his hand to prove some degree of awareness.

Doctors in Britain have been allowed to withdraw food and fluids from PVS patients since the landmark case of Tony Bland in 1993.

American “Nazi Agenda” being pushed by politicians
Biograph finds shocking proof of “Nazi Agenda” for new documentary

Beverly Hills, CA (PRWEB) December 8 2003--The oldest movie company in America initiates the movement for a documentary on the battle of Terri Schindler-Schiavo, the 39 year old woman who is still fighting for her life in Florida.

Biograph is the oldest movie company in America, established in 1895. Biograph launched the careers of many move legends; director D. W. Griffith, Mary Pickford, Lillian Gish, Blanche Sweet, and Lionel Barrymore.

Thomas R. Bond, II – President and CEO of Biograph is outraged at the new nazi agenda, and now has proof linked to the political policies. Bond states “My aunt has had brain damage from a car accident in 1996. We went through unsatisfactory medical care and one time my aunt was almost killed if we had jot (sic: he means: 'if we had NOT") have been there”. Bond continues “This is close to my heart”. Bond continues “This is not about abortion, or suicide, but about murder”.

Bond has accumulated factual evidence of the original “Nazi Agenda” from Germany and direct links to the Terri Schindler case. Bond also states that certain politicians are pushing this agenda, and feels that this is only the first of non consentive legalized murders of handicapped people. “It is insane, but we recovered files from the euthanasia T-4 project. In a capsule, this is what it collectively states”.

“The early Nazi agenda T-4 Euthanasia Program was established to elliminate the so called suffering of the mentally ill and handicapped. The plan allowed the systematic killing of children born with physical deformities or mental illness. Under the control of Karl Brandt, "defective" children were removed from their families and taken to "hospitals" where the exterminations were carried out at the Hartheim and Hadamar killing centres. The program was expanded to include adults to prevent any "deficient" member humanity so they could not pass on their inferiority.

The Nazi Euthanasia action was written in the book by Ernst Klee: Euthanasie im NS-Staat - Die Vernichtung lebensunwerten Lebens. Klee describes further the killing of handicapped people by doctors with lethal injections, and the starvation of patients marked for extermination.

Klee describes as well the resistance from the churches and the relatives of the victims, which led to a slow-down and greater secrecy of the operation, but did not stop it. Till the operation was conducted more covertly after August 1941, 70,000 people had already died. By that time every third inmate of a psychiatric institution in Germany had already died (leading to about 93,000 "free beds" at the end of 1941 in Nazi terminology) either by being actively killed or by starvation.

Most of the participants of the T-4 Euthanasia Program became part of the Holocaust as well, developing gas chamber technology and even helping to build death camps as Belzec, Treblinka or Sobibor in Operation Reinhard, as Klee notes. Aside from the well-known Auschwitz-Birkenau these were the main centers of extermination by gas for millions of people”.

Bond sates "We admire Governor Jeb Bush and Senator Joseph Lieberman who are against this new agenda." However, Bond is in the midst of a investigating other political individuals and officials involved. Bond continues “We are looking into Dick Gephardt and Michael Schiavo. We think we may be on the verge of a huge discovery soon”. Biograph will be releasing non sensitive information in the near future on this expose documentary. Bond continues “This is still America, and everyone has the right to live and be free, even if you are defenseless. It is up to our Government to protect us, not to kill us.”

Bond says “Whoever reads this, do your own investigation. Let us know what you find. We need the support from the caring people of America. Also, please visit the Terri Schiavo website, (http://www.terrisfight.org/ ). Find the real information the officials do not want you to see. Write and call your Congress member, your political officials. Demand that this handicapped person has the right to live. The handicapped have a right to live. You have a right to live. Remember, one day you could be her.

Intentional Medical Killings in US Hospices:
Has Anyone Seriously Addressed the Issue?

Serious Problem of Involuntary Medical Killings Is Real

We have provided in addition to accounts of commonly known violations of standards of care, four accounts of medical killings of a patient in hospices in various locations in the United States:

Involuntary Euthanasia Case 1
Lucid, Poor, Elderly Veteran Euthanized Against His Will

Involuntary Euthanasia Case 2
HMO Commits Medicare Fraud, Kills Patient and Falsifies Death Certificate

Involuntary Euthanasia Case 3
Hospice Kills Family's Mother with Morphine Overdose

Involuntary Euthanasia Case 4
Hospice Kills Parkinson's Patient by Dehydration, Terminal Sedation
and Morphine Overdose

These reports have been gone over, detail by detail with the families who reported them. In every case, the details have never changed and the story told remains the same: they all report, "my father/mother was medically killed (euthanized) totally against his or her conscious will, even though they were competent and protesting...

And, now that we've gotten you all scared with that recent poll of "Killer Nurses" and the example that followed, you are all soft and ready for some warm, fuzzy religious stuff, right?

NEW WORLD ORDER STRAINING AGAINST THE RESTRAINTS - PART 1

THE CUTTING EDGE

This is David Bay, Director of Old Paths Ministries. And this is the Cutting Edge, a radio program dedicated to warning and informing God's people...

1. Value of Human Life

The Bible emphatically teaches that God has bestowed upon mankind a very special value which is to be respected by all other men in every age. Only man is so valued; no animal, fish, or fowl are bestowed with
this God-given value. Why is man so valued? God gave the answer in Genesis 1:26-27: "God said, Let Us make mankind in our image after our likeness..So God created man in His own image, in the image and likeness
of God He created him; male and female He created them...

Even now, according to Holocaust survivor, Dr. Wolf Wofensberger, certain American hospitals and nursing homes are killing people in ways which are medically disguised. The last people to systematically do this kind
of medical killing were the Germans, who started in their hospitals and nursing homes some ten years before Hitler came to power...

But, Dr. Wolfensberger states that American medical institutions are killing more people per year than the Nazis killed from 1939-45. Wolfensberger further says that the situation has deteriorated so badly that if any family is
thinking about admitting any loved one into a medical institution, they had better be prepared to post a 24-hour guard at the bedside. Times are much later than we think.
