Out Of The Blank #1309 - Peter Elkind

1 year ago

Peter Elkind an award-winning investigative reporter, is the co-author of the national bestseller, The Smartest Guys in the Room, about the collapse of Enron. Peter is the author of "The Death Shift" about one of the most shocking and insidious cases in the history of medicine: the crimes of one nurse were hidden by a hospital for years. In 1980 Genene Jones is working the 3 to 11 PM shift in the pediatric ICU in San Antonio's county hospital. As the weeks go by, infants under her care begin experiencing unexpected complications—and dying—in alarming numbers, prompting rumors that there is a murderer among the staff. Her eight-hour shift would come to be called “the death shift.” This strange epidemic would continue unabated for more than a year, before Jones is quietly sent off—with a good recommendation—to a rural pediatric clinic.
