The Nurse: Inside Denmark's Most Sensational Criminal Trial by Kristian Corfixen
3.0
The Nurse is everything that I love about True Crime. I read this with vigour. Every so often my husband would ask me what I was reading, and I would animatedly describe how a nurse would commit these awful acts. I think he sometimes worries about me– he questions my passion for true crime. It’s not exactly the acts per se but it’s the psychology of why a human can commit these atrocities.
Fate is something that can change at the drop of a hat. One minute you’re going into the hospital for something routine and the next you’re on death’s door, your body wants to go into complete shutdown. That cruel fate lands on several patients of Christina Aistrup Hansen, a nurse working in a Danish hospital. She has been accused of poisoning her patients with Morphine. In fact, it was a well-known fact that when the nurses had a shift with Christina, they knew they’d be in for a rough time. There were more cardiac arrests during Christina’s shifts than any other and I find it very strange how her colleagues didn’t pick up on the discrepancies sooner.
