This week, we"re sitting down for a second time with Retired Special Agent Bruce Sackman, who spent his career tracking down medical serial killers. The topic of today"s interview is the case of RaDonda Vaught, the story of a nurse who mistakenly gave a patient the wrong drug, ultimately leading to the patient"s death. In this incredibly unusual case, RaDonda was just convicted of criminally negligent homicide and criminal neglect of an impaired adult for her medication error. We"re here to get Bruce"s opinion on the case that recently rocked the healthcare field.  If you want to help us grow, subscribe and leave us a review on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, or wherever you get your podcast fix! Bruce is also the co-author of the incredible new book: Behind the Murder Curtain: Special Agent Bruce Sackman Hunts Doctors and Nurses Who Kill Our Veterans.
