How could the hospital not connect the dots to whenever a child was under her care they went into cardiac arrest? I don’t get it. It was never the other nurses, only her
Theres usually only around 3 staff on the ward at once I think she stated in part 1 so it's not that obvious if 20 odd staff and only 1 was there. Plus she played on her resusitating him
it’s not okay to blame others for the actions of a serial killer no matter how silly it may look to you. the hospital was severely understaffed and beverly was a manipulator. she worked in secret and played the part of a compassionate nurse well.
@@mvrtuaries I think (hopefully) they meant that it’s so upsetting that they were unable to connect the dots sooner, hopefully they weren’t pinning the blame
Imagine how the parents with the twins felt when they heard the “caring” godmother of Katie, was the one who killed their other child… absolutely disturbing.
If that cop didn't push his gut feeling she'd still be a nurse. Thank you Eleanor for the respect you put in your videos and how you cover them wirh little as possible opinion. Please also take mind and soul breaks.
I could also believe that she really did love the children and her job and that maybe in this picture she was happy and felt connected but she was very sick and when the opportunity came/she felt bad etc etc then she sacrifized the patients for her need for attention which was stronger than her love for kids/her job… just an idea-
@@klaramathilda9929 I doubt it. She only has real love for herself and ego it seems and the reason she looks so pleased and almost caring for the children was because of what they gave her and what she knew she would do to them. Just a pure evil woman I think
As a retired nurse, I can't believe this woman's fellow nurses didn't notice she was always on duty and caring for these victims at the time of crisis and bring it to administration's attention.
As a nurse, I asked myself the same question. So suspicious than in every cardiac arrest she is right there... and none of her co-workers realized this? I'm sure they all must be worried and commenting about the sudden cardiac arrests in the late months and the death of 4 children (which in this ward is unheard of).
@@Alejojojo6 is it possible she was hands on with most cases so these children were a minority for her, as well as other docs. Since she was just an extra hand it would be interesting to know if the other day nurses and docs were on these patients as much as her.
@@breathoffreshair7795 But the fact that it was always her calling out for help or the attacks happened right when she was alone with the patient must have been suspicious. I would blame them not noticing on the shifts but since they were understaffed Im sured most nursed repeated shifts with her pretty often and witness this more than a couple times, enough to raise some suspicion. I sort of would have.
As SOON as she started talking about the other twin, I thought “no way, she’s sick, but she can’t be THAT sick,” but no. This woman is evil and sadistic on a terrifying level. I’ve never heard of a case like this one.
This case is so disturbing I don't understand how you could do that to innocent babies 😔 my heart goes out to all the families who had to lose a child that young 💔
The fact that there was literally no motive for what she did makes it that more sickening! I get that we're told that she was mentally ill or whatever, but she knew exactly what she was doing everytime she took steps to kill an innocent child and everything else, so I don't know how much her mental illness could be said to have affected that! I'm just glad that she's never going to be able to hurt another child again! Smh 😒
Never thought I’d be so happy to hear about someone being so stressed, and losing excessive amounts of weight due to deteriorating mental health. I’m glad she suffered
Eleanor already said that the childrens ward of that hospital was terribly understaffed so they didn’t have time to think of doing something like that. Its not normal that a nurse would kill their patients intentionally so thats why they didn’t suspect Beverly.
I agree - but I know from working in the medical field in lots of different small UK towns, you do get lots of people with similar and hard to diagnose illnesses. Insular communities mean genetic diseases, sometimes horrible ones which are unnoticable until they're fatal, are more common than you'd think. They're also harder to test for, especially on children. City hospitals not only have more funding, but also more diverse patients, so horrible events like this would be harder to explain away.
I guess sometimes it's a perceived bad upbringing and lack of attention. Maybe there really was a difference between her oldest and youngest siblings and her , and a fragile child could easily develop bad behavior from that growing into full blown mental illnesses and evilness.
It's insane that so much evil came from a child who just "wanted more attention". It's not even like she was neglected, she was just needy and couldn't handle not being the perfect only child? So fucked up.
I agree. It seems like the hospital itself transferred out more “serious” cases so I can’t imagine there were stable patients flat lining on the regular there. If one nurse had so many saves after her patients flat lined especially within that time frame I would be SKEPTICAL. But maybe it’s because I notice patterns and make connections easily, maybe those coworkers don’t 🤷🏻♀️
The fact that they didn't connect all these incidents only shows how bad this hospital was. Almost everyone had the same thing (cardiac and respiratory arrests) during their near death episodes, that should've warranted an investigation of what was going on and who were working during these incidents. This makes me rather upset since I work with the elderly and I can't imagine there are people who can do this to those who can't defend themselves.
Well she didn’t bond with them for two reasons. The first one being she killed them almost immediately and for two, I don’t think she’s capable of bonding with anyone.
It's mind boggling how nobody thought this was anything to do with the new nurse when out of nowhere all these deaths & cardiac arrests kept happening when Beverley had only been there that short amount of time.
I hope that detective got a badge of honor for putting his job on the line . I mean come on we have to place some responsibility on the hospital as well. They were neglectful . They made it easy for a lot to go wrong. Rip to the babies & im glad that she’ll never get a chance to hurt another baby.
My partner and I were sat there trying to figure out how this woman could have gone unsuspected for so long while it’s so glaringly obvious in hindsight. We came to the conclusion that the idea of a serial killer nurse who preys on SICK CHILDREN while looking their parents in the eye and telling them they’re safe in her hands is just so…. Absurdly, obscenely, cartoonishly evil that of COURSE no one humored that thought at the time. Makes this case all the more chilling
it must've been all the more absurd for all this to be uncovered, considering that this isn't the sort of evil you're ever taught to believe can hide in plain sight
Yea no one would think that someone could actually be capable of doing this and to accuse or make allegations against you’re coworker without physical proof. it’s sadly makes sense why she was not caught earlier. Such an evil creature 🤬
This case always sticks with me, my childhood hairdresser was the aunt of one of the victims, who sadly didn't survive. I remember watching her break down talking about it as it happened, and during the trial! Awful awful woman!
She was only caught doing 13 wrongdoings against children, another to an adult... I just can't imagine how many more there actually were. She deserves more time in prison than she is. Terrible, the pain in my heart for these families. The victims.
I visited this ward a lot when I was a teenager-they turned it into consultant rooms, no beds, they changed the walls and the entrance way, but I remember my mum always reminding me to have a moment of silence for lost children, I assumed she meant for poorly children admitted that had passed and when I got a few years older I understood what she meant Rest in peace sleeping angels 🙏❤️
As a former anorexia sufferer, all I can say is HA HA HA! I’ve said that I would never wish this illness on anyone, but I take that back. Im SO glad she suffered.
Bro same. I had anorexia and bulima for 2 and half years and it was awful. I NEVER wish this on my worst enemy but for what she did to INNOCENT children and seriously BABIES, I’m glad she did suffer
right? i’ve always been a “i’d never wish this on anyone, not even my worst enemy” person, but i take that shit back now. she got what she deserved. actually, she should’ve be suffered worse, but i guess we have to take what we can get
I can't even imagine how many people were affected by this woman's actions. Thank u Eleanor for being so respectful with every case you cover. I love you 🤍🤍
As a nurse in training this case is so devastating and frustrating. This woman abusing her position as a nurse is just disgusting. Although this was really hard to watch for me, you did an amazing job covering this case.
Your covering of this case was the best I’ve seen. Thank you for not being afraid to cover already popular cases! Sometimes it’s the person we really want to see haha. Well done Eleanor! 💕
NO! NO! NO! Many people say I am sick in the head. NOOOO!!!! I don't believe them. But there are so many people commenting this stuff on my videos, that I have 1% doubt. So I have to ask you right now: Do you think I am sick in the head? Thanks for helping, my dear to
As someone with cerebral palsy (dw the reason for mine is just birth basically lol) I immediately went "yup the surviving kids are left with cp", as soon as you mentioned the brain being starved of oxygen in the first episode. CP is a disability as individual as the person who has it, all depending on the severity of the brain damage and the area that got affected. Living with it isn't easy, but it's definitely worth it! Wishing the people and families who had to experience it all the best 🥰
This woman is truly so so sick, I can’t imagine the pain and anguish she caused to these families, I’m happy she’ll never be released, she can’t be saved.
She's not evil. She's mentally ill. Christ sake, people are so bloody ignorant when it comes to mental illness, this is why this happened in the first place.
What is even more infuriating about this case is that this person, while obviously very mentally ill, was not "failed" by society in any way. Most serial killers are the product of a childhood of sexual and physical abuse, isolation, poverty, neglect etc, and while these are not excuses for what they did, we can at least understand how and why this person turned out this way and committed these horrible crimes. This woman grew up in absolutely normal circumstances. Her only set back was that she was bullied but who isn't in school? That's what infuriates me, that she killed these children for no reason at all and it seems we as a society could not even have prevented it in any way. It was completely random.
@@idek7438 you don't have to have an abusive home life to develop severe mental illness. She might not have been failed by society. It's no one's job to diagnose her and get her treatment if she, or a family member isn't going to get her seen by the right doctor. But the children here who suffered were failed by all who allowed her to care for them because she was very, clearly unstable. They knew that whilst she was training and they purposely put her on the kids ward.
@@idek7438 this, I've been thru alot of stuff you mentioned but the love I have for babies especially my baby sister, any child I would never ever hurt like this and so would so many other people it's absolutely infuriating
I can't imagine trusting someone so much that you ask them to be your child's godmother only to find out that she murdered one of your children and attempted to murder the other! That would be so awful! I have twins myself and it would be so awful to lose one, especially to murder!
Colic is actually quite painful and very upsetting. It's a gas problem😉 Small children just communicate through crying and due to the pain, they cry almost constantly.
My jaw about hit the floor when I heard her say that. I wrote a novel of a comment about it just now. Then I went scrolling through the comments to see if anyone commented about it as well. I was hoping I would find at least one person that knew the mistake she made when talking about Colic.
i’m not a mom and i’m from jamaica where it doesn’t apply to babies alone but technically she’s not wrong cause when i google the word that’s what comes up
In Spanish "cólico" is an acute abdominal pain originated in the digestive system although it's also used to describe menstrual cramps (cólicos menstruales). I assumed it was the same in English so I was a little bit confused by Eleanor definition 😅
When she realized she would get attention for saving the babies, I believe it was when she became Kate’s Godmother, she stopped killing and starred only injuring the children and being the one who would notice what others wouldn’t, being a “super hero”. Hate her so much, poor families!
I honestly cannot believe Paul lived through that high of an insulin level, holy crap! My heart goes out to all of the kids and families of the kids, I know this happened years ago, but I know it still is with them to this day. My prayers go out ❤
I can't even imagine the horrible trauma those parents went through especially the mother its so hard to gave birth to a baby then lost them after to a terrible person u trust with your baby...I dont know how people have to heart to steal someone else joy because there unhappy 😔 💔
It's a deep psychological issue that no emotionally healthy person could ever imagine. My heart goes out to the parents too. It's one thing to lose a baby due to a medical problem, and quite another for them to be purposely killed by a nurse. Unbelievable heartache. 💔💔💔
Thank you for doing this story! This story initially ROCKED the nursing world when it first came out. We have since become so strict that it is insanely hard to hurt a patient, so I hope people aren't afraid or feel anxious about receiving care from us professionals!!
It blows my mind that hardly anyone at Grantham hospital was suspicious of what was going on, thank goodness for Dr Porter. Out of all the people working there, how was there only one person who thought to look further into these bizarre and unexplained cardiac arrests? I understand that perhaps it seems odd but likely coincidental if these attacks happen to 2/3 children, but 12 in 2 months???! Unbelievable and terrifying. Also very frightening how reluctant the police were to get involved.
I hope the hospital was also held accountable because how did they not notice the pattern sooner? Surely alarm bells should’ve been ringing after the 3rd/4th seemingly random cardiac arrest in such a short space of time. It should never have gone this far. I really hope the parents of those babies are healing. RIP to the little angels ☹️❤️
Obviously Beverly is fully to blame her, but the staff at this hospital were appalling also, not looking into these cases properly. Like, a child has been smothered and they didn't look into it?!
They didn’t have the time nor the eye for that because they were incredibly understaffed. I am sure they didn’t even know that the kid was smothered at the time.
No but I do question how no one even rose an eyebrow about the eerie coincidence that every child under this nurse’s care had the exact same sudden respiratory problem. She had to have a chief nurse and doctors that should have questioned the bizarre pattern and made the connection early. How good of a person someone is shouldn’t matter more than the obvious reality
@@tabitha4485 Exactly! Always there when things went wrong! I guess it's easier to say that in hindsight now after everything had been revealed; but I'm sure the doctors / nurses did have suspicion but maybe didn't what to believe it or be the only one to say something! 🤷🏽♀️
I’m sure they had a bunch of cases where patients were crashing. It stands out to us because this is all we’re hearing about, but it could have very well been that these cases were few of many and didn’t stand out so much.
@@jessieqk12 mmm idk. I got from the story that this was sort of a clinic, so if they had a bunch of crashings then they should’ve been investigated as well. I get why it would stand out, but to have every single patient dying in the hands of the same person should’ve raised flags a lot earlier IMO
I suggest Faith Hedgepeth’s murder case. Her murder took place almost 10 years ago and was solved only half a year ago. It’s very interesting and devastating
That accidentally recorded voicemail still bothers me. I was relieved to see that they'd officially solved the case - finally - but that element of it & her friend's behaviour & reactions still bother me.
As someone with anorexia, I 100% believe that her experience of it was a manifestation of her Munchausens disorder. I actually thought that before you said it. I also think it was two fold: 1) To garner sympathy and be cared for, a sort of return from biproxy to straight Munchausens and 2)It has elements of malingering as I imagine she knew this would delay her trial. Anorexia is complex and isn't always typical. I wouldn't put it past her to both suffer from it and at the same time attempt to wield it as shield to avoid facing up to the consequences of her actions.
omg thank god she’s putting part numbers in the titles also she’s _almost_ convinced me to buy a casetify case YALL IM DOIN IT IM GETTING ONE WITH THAT DISCOUNT 💃
The fact that when the one baby's ribs were broken and NOBODY questioned how that happened?? Especially when she only went in with what they assumed was colic or a bad stomach bug but all of a sudden her ribs where broken? If anything THAT was when they should have been asking their staff questions.
As someone who was born with a genetic heart defect & has seen A LOT of medical personnel, I’ve had my share of Nurse Ratchets. (Although 99% of nurses are wonderful, caring people) But I thank God that I never had a nurse like this woman! Those poor children & their families!
Did you ever have nurses flirt with your father instead of taking care of you? Because I always had one of those when I was hospitalized as a kid as well haha
6 months ago when my husband would hear me listening to Eleanor: "What the hell are you listening to? You can't even understand a damn thing she's saying". My husband now: "Has Eleanor uploaded anything this week yet? Don't watch her without me...okay? Okay? OKAY? She has the coolest accent, I love watching her videos!" 🤣🤣🤣
Cases like this deserve so much coverage and awareness so we know to ensure that children are protected at all costs from evil beings (I wouldn't even call her human) like Allit. I just can't fathom this, I really can't.
I'd heard of this case, but I never knew about the children who survived. I can't imagine surviving this ordeal only to be left with extremely debilitating, lifelong disorders. I wish nothing but the best going forward to all the families affected by this.
It’s incredible how much had to happen for people to finally realize a killer was around them. It’s insane. I wish the best for the victims and their family 💔❤️
This lady was INSANE!!! Being a mother this case really got to me ! How can you hurt people like this ? Especially people who trust you and depend on you to make them better ?
What's sad is that all these parents believed beverly actually cared. Thanking her for looking after them so well...not aware she was capable of hurting any of them... so sad
This video really had my blood BOILING. HOW COULD YOU NOT PUT 2 AND 2 TOGETHER. This was pure negligence in my eyes.. these poor babies and their parents😔
As the mom of a chronically ill child who is hospitalized routinely and will be throughout his life, this sickens and terrifies me. When you are in this situation, facing the possible loss of your child, these nurses and other medical personnel are literally your Gods. They are the ones that hold the key to keeping your baby with you. They are the ones who you hand your child over to in an OR, they are the ones you trust to watch over your child better than anyone else possibly could while you exhaustedly take your first shower in 4 days or eat for the first time in as long. The idea of someone in such a trusted, respected position abusing the trust of these parents and sickly babies- the literal most vulnerable possible beings on earth- is so fucking horrific. Ugh. I do feel like it took the hospitals a bit too long to realize something was up… idk maybe it would go differently today with all the different protocols in place and everything. I pray this can never happen to any other suffering family.
This case is so sad. I don’t understand why they didn’t just check the charts to see what staff members were on each patient? Who the common denominator was?
I was nearly accidentally killed when I was a child. I had really severe asthma and did nebulizer treatments often, so we picked up a prescription from a pharmacy. My meds got mixed up, I was given (expired, thankfully) about 6x the dosage I was supposed to be taking. I started to get sick, and using that medicine and it would help, until it only started lasting 5 minutes. There was some other mishaps when my grandparents called for an ambulance, my town only had volunteer services that took us to the next town for hospital and had three ambulances. The first didn't leave the lot, the engine failed, the second got a flat half way to my house, but because one of the EMTs pushed they managed to get to me. When I managed to get to the ER, my O2 stats were in the fifties, which. Children are admitted for 92-90 and adults 90 and below. I had to be transferred to a bigger hospital an hour away and spent two weeks in hospital, on the ICU children's pulmonary ward. The doctors said I was incredibly lucky, and had the medicine not been expired I would have probably died, and had the EMTs not driven on a flat the rest of the way to start emergency care, I wouldn't have lived the 30min ambulance ride to the first hospital or the little over an hour ride to the bigger hospital. Medicine is an easy weapon to wield, wielding it expertly can save lives or take them, and wielding them incorrectly will almost always end in tragedy
If you had nebulizer treatments so often, did you parents not wonder about the high dosage? No blame, just wondering and for my advice: If you see a sudden change in dosage without a specific explanation for it (like they only have the version half as strong, but then they would explain to you as well why you would need a higher dose than you are used to.) If they don't, always check if that's correct. Pharmacies can look up the prescription since they usually scan it every day into the computer. Then the prescription would make things more clear. (Although if the dose is suddenly higher than usual, we need to confirm if that's correct unless it is specifically written on the prescription by the doctor). Same goes for sudden changes in color, shape etc, especially when you don't have meds in a blister but a bottle. I still find it tricky that people only get bottles with the name on the label. Not to make you paranoid but in blisters you can read on the back of the blister. A pill bottle is literally trusting they pull out the right container with your medication. I guess you are used to it whereas we in my country in Europe have usually 28-30 pills in a blisterpackage. Just rarely do we take from bigger containers in a bottle if the drug just isn't available in smaller amounts. (Promethazin only comes in a 500 pill- container.)
@@Fluffy-Fluffy I don't remember the situation clearly, but at that point in my life I had been very sick, often, like in and out of the hospital a lot sick, so maybe they thought the increase of dosage was because of that, or maybe it had been mislabeled? But at the time I was staying with my grandparents since my grandmother was usually home and could watch me. I'd been diagnosed in the second grade and was in the the fifth grade when this incident occured, so I was trusted to administer my meds as I needed. I'm 24 now and my asthma only hits when I'm doing something really labor intensive in the cold or my allergies are really bad.
If anyone is interested, there's an amazing book on this story, Murder on Ward 4. It isn't in print anymore but you can get it second hand online, the author interviews the parents and covers everything.
As a RN I never ever left my babies or children anymore in the room without me. Before any medication was administered I ask what the medication was being given and why. This case makes my heart just break. Traditionally individuals are drawn into the medical field because they care for the well being of others. Just the statistics on this case should have flagged professionals way sooner.
Btw colic may seem like they're crying for no reason but really theyre in sooo much pain, its trapped wind in a baby when they're unable to burp it out (thats why u burp a baby after a bottle, to avoid the pain later on) Just thought i should say incase ur baby has it make sure to talk to professionals on ways to help. I dont want any parents making the mistake that its nothing and letting them suffer Great vid xx
Incorrect. Babies can cry due to trapped gas, but colic is not caused by gas. It can be the other way around though. Babies suck in air while crying due to colic that can then cause gas pain. If you read any number of medical journals or articles on colic you will find that there is no known cause for colic and it is not due to gas.
as a nurse that just graduated last month from nursing school and that did part of her training in pediatric wards and NICUs, this case hit really close home. I just can’t comprehend how someone could choose to do this job and intentionally commit those acts… that’s a whole new level of evilness. My heart goes out to all the victims and their families💔
I cannot understand for the life of me how NO ONE NOTICED BEVERLYS PART IN THESE ATTACKS?! she just conveniently happened to be around every time these attacks happened the negligence is absolutely horrible 😭
I agree, but since they were severely understaffed that might be why they didn't notice. They only had a few people around to help so it was inevitable that there'd be one nurse as a "common denominator" in all of the attacks.
as someone who works for the NHS but also within diabetics the fact that poor lads insulin level was so high is absolutely mind blowing to me!!!! that poor little boy (and of course all of the other children and their parents) i can’t imagine how he felt going through that🥺
All it needed was ONE police officer to look into this and prevent what could have been a life-long streak of killing babies and children. Hats off to Stuart Cliffton ( I hope I got his name right)
My heart breaks for the parents.. my son got extremely sick at 2 months old. His nurse (24/7) while he was sedated.. mentioned wanting to put an order in for MORE medicine while we were watching his levels DROP. THANK GOD it clicked to me the medicine she mentioned was more SEDATIVES. I about set the hospital on fire. I banned her from my sons room and spoke to upper management about this. By no means am I a medical professional but my GUT instantly told me she was a dangerous nurse. Not sure what became of her but for 32 days I did not leave my sons side.
Girl, if your son was with sedatives and his levels dropped, then he was needing more sedatives to keep the levels even.... Dont blame the nurse for wanting her patient to be sedated as its beneficial to the patient. Not all nurses are dangerous, but sometimes they have to deal with histerical relatives.
@@Alejojojo6when I brought this to the attention of the head nurse he was extremely alarmed. He and I quote spoke the very thing that drew red flags for me. Sedatives already bring your levels down more sedatives would only make his levels worse. He flagged the upper management for me while I banned her from our room immediately. I’m sure sedatives can help level peoples vitals but he was only 2 months old at this time and it was the furthest thing he needed at that time. Not to mention him almost flat lining 3 times our entire stay. The third time was just 4 hrs after THIS nurse put us in a step down unit because he was in her words “doing better and wanted to get out of here” (and I over heard her ignorant ass saying they needed to turn over beds because RSV was running rampant) shortly before His vitals ended up in single digits is when she wanted to put him on more sedatives. I had to actually sound the alarm because of his vitals NOT her on our way back to the ICU a different nurse had to jump on the table and manually blow oxygen into his breathing tub while being wheeled to the icu because he was dying right before my eyes. There is so much more to our story but I’m sparing the details. Not just a “histerical relative” you can miss me with that. If it was not for me being there, I’m convinced they would of killed my son. And this is a prestigious hospital on the east coast not some small town medical unit.
this case is so frustrating, i cant imagine how traumatic this must have been for the children, AND the parents. so many lives were ruined by this foul woman, and it went unnoticed for far too long
My son has had operations in the past and been kept overnight in hospital and I can’t imagine anything scarier than not having the trust of your baby being safe while in their care. It’s too scary to imagine.
makes me never want to leave my daughter alone if she's ever in hospital. I'll sleep in the floor if needed. not leaving my daughter alone after this..
People like this makes my blood boil because it’s so annoying on how they get away with it for so long. It’s bad enough murdering anyone but innocent children/babies it’s messed up😤😤
"they were so grateful they asked her to be Katie's God mother" I never felt like this before. I'm just so disappointed and heartbroken because she could've stopped at any moment but she didn't absolutely no remorse
It's always terrifying to me when someone could do what she did and she didn't even have a horrible traumatic childhood. Like... why was she like that. Glad she is in jail forever.
@Poppy Akers they only gave her 30 years minimum in high-security psychiatric hospital she'll be able to apply for parole, or early release in November. Remember she was only 22 at the time she's 52 now.
I understand the hospital was understaffed, but the more things happen, the harder and harder it gets to understand why they did ring any alarms earlier. Like it's understandable that respiratory and cardiac complications happen regularly... but the key to the insulin fridge being lost, and the ridiculously high insulin levels... how was no one tipped off?
I understand mental illness and my heart typically goes out to some of the murderers who suffer from some form. But she got off way too easy for what she did. I hope she continues to have a very painful life.
the personality disorder they suspected she had was likely Histrionic Personality Disorder. A person values attention so much they’ll do drastic things to receive it. It’s not talked about much and it should be because it can grow into such a dangerous thing without therapy. Edit: It is very different from just being an attention seeker. I used to think I have this disorder but in reality I was just a very attention seeking person due to my low self esteem and other issues. Idk how to explain the difference. It’s like how a lot of people have BPD symptoms but not BPD. it’s just a matter of how many and to what extreme.
@@hollybeauchamp7135 same. i wasn’t trying to defend her or anything, i was just speculating what the disorder could be. lots of people have this disorder and they don’t murder children for attention, so no matter what condition she has, it’s no excuse
Honestly, not many true crime cases make me cry, but this one has me bawling. I can't imagine the pain the families went through. How can anyone be this evil.
this whole case was so shocking and disgusting but i audibly laughed when she said she missed half her own trial because just HOW did they let her keep doing that its so ridiculous 😭
Thank you so much for not demonizing personality disorders. 🥺 I have Quiet BPD and it can definitely hurt when people assume we’re all evil. So just wanted to say a little thank you, even though it was a small thing!
I'm not sure if there's been a case you've covered that has upset me this much. Amazing presentation as always, but I just can't believe how sick and twisted this monster was, and that no one caught her until it was far too late.
This absolutely has to be the WORST situation I’ve ever had to hear about…. BABY KILLER… like seriously how could they not catch on to her at the hospital! 🥺🥺 This makes me sooo sad for all of these family! Thank you Eleanor for posting this video!
It is so heartbreaking. These poor babies. And poor poor parents. I personally knew a girl that had a disability from a drunk nurse dropping her as a baby. But knowing a NURSE did this to you on purpose must be devastating for survivors and families.
When she said she had only been working there for a month and named that many children literally dropped my jaw like there is no way they didn’t notice and it’s so sad to hear that many children lost their lives due to a woman who’s job was to take care of them just amazes me
I've listened to almost all of your cases and a lot of other UA-camrs videos regarding gnarly cases as well but this one specifically, honestly, disturbed and frustrated me so much! Thank God she got hers and was taken when she was, though it wasn't soon enough. Rip to those poor children and condolences to all of the kids and families permenately affected by her horrific acts.
I still don't understand how no one noticed. This makes me scared for my baby sister to go to hospital now. But I feel like someone would have caught on. Sickening this case.
I’ve already commented about how awful this lady is, but I’m also astounded at how ridiculous she is. If someone had the audacity to poison my dog and then blame it on a POLTERGEIST, I would throw hands right then and there.
My son was born with hypoglycaemia because they didn't catch that I had GD, he was in special care for 10 days and his nurses were all so amazing. Even the cleaners, doctors, carers, everyone was absolutely amazing. I put my trust into these strangers to make my new born baby better and he recovered after 10 days. I can't imagine not being able to trust the very people who are supposed to heal your child. This disgusting human gives these nurses a bad reputation 😤 to all you wonderful special care nurses, thank you so much for healing our babies ❤️
You should look into the case of Angela McAnulty, she tortured her 15 year old daughter to death, but left her other children unharmed. It's pretty unsettling but I'd love to see you cover it. You always go into such detail about their past and I love the way you tell the stories :)
Yessssssss just sitting down to do some art and needed a good listen. I just really can’t believe all of this was happening on one hospital floor and it went so far. So many children, so many families… if only she were caught the first time..
How could the hospital not connect the dots to whenever a child was under her care they went into cardiac arrest? I don’t get it. It was never the other nurses, only her
Theres usually only around 3 staff on the ward at once I think she stated in part 1 so it's not that obvious if 20 odd staff and only 1 was there. Plus she played on her resusitating him
Evil psyco b****
it’s not okay to blame others for the actions of a serial killer no matter how silly it may look to you. the hospital was severely understaffed and beverly was a manipulator. she worked in secret and played the part of a compassionate nurse well.
@@mvrtuaries I think (hopefully) they meant that it’s so upsetting that they were unable to connect the dots sooner, hopefully they weren’t pinning the blame
@@mvrtuaries I think it’s just the mix of frustration and sadness or well that’s how I took it
Imagine how the parents with the twins felt when they heard the “caring” godmother of Katie, was the one who killed their other child… absolutely disturbing.
this was exactly what i thought when she said they made her god mother. i would be horrified
pretty sure they didn't believe it was her
Lawsuit anyone?
@@UA-camITA Well yeah, it was said in the video but it was proven that she did it so that’s what they probably meant.
@@UA-camITA Yes but once it was actually proven, they probably believed it
If that cop didn't push his gut feeling she'd still be a nurse. Thank you Eleanor for the respect you put in your videos and how you cover them wirh little as possible opinion. Please also take mind and soul breaks.
Oh God, that shot of Beverly holding little baby Katy is sickening. You can only imagine the evil thoughts going through her brain at that moment :/
and the fact they made the killer of their child the godmother of katy without knowing is so sad
I could also believe that she really did love the children and her job and that maybe in this picture she was happy and felt connected but she was very sick and when the opportunity came/she felt bad etc etc then she sacrifized the patients for her need for attention which was stronger than her love for kids/her job… just an idea-
@@klaramathilda9929 I doubt it. She only has real love for herself and ego it seems and the reason she looks so pleased and almost caring for the children was because of what they gave her and what she knew she would do to them. Just a pure evil woman I think
@@aulajaromito-kalluk1894 I whole heartedly agree. Looks are deceiving and everything is not what it seems.
@Star yeah youre probably right but man thats so sad
They should stop giving romanticized names like “the angel of death” to these criminals.
Exactly!! Some of the killers just love the publicity and "cool" names that they get
Yeah tbh I'd love it if they gave them really offending nicknames? lol
the case of the murderous ****
@@seralee883 I’m sure calling her the C**t killer demon would have some trouble being printed in the news
I agree w u 😺💕
As a retired nurse, I can't believe this woman's fellow nurses didn't notice she was always on duty and caring for these victims at the time of crisis and bring it to administration's attention.
As a nurse, I asked myself the same question. So suspicious than in every cardiac arrest she is right there... and none of her co-workers realized this? I'm sure they all must be worried and commenting about the sudden cardiac arrests in the late months and the death of 4 children (which in this ward is unheard of).
@@Alejojojo6 is it possible she was hands on with most cases so these children were a minority for her, as well as other docs. Since she was just an extra hand it would be interesting to know if the other day nurses and docs were on these patients as much as her.
@@breathoffreshair7795 But the fact that it was always her calling out for help or the attacks happened right when she was alone with the patient must have been suspicious. I would blame them not noticing on the shifts but since they were understaffed Im sured most nursed repeated shifts with her pretty often and witness this more than a couple times, enough to raise some suspicion. I sort of would have.
It had never happened before and why would you suspect a NURSE? Hindsight…
There was only 3 nurses on at once most the time so everyone would have been looking after everyone
All of these cases are awful but its absolutely despicable that she would do anything to the other twin while the parents are grieving her sister
I genuinely lost it at that point
I know right?! AND then became the twins Godmother ugh 😩 so disgusting
That's exactly what I was thinking! My blood was boiling when Eleanor was talking about how she was treating the twin sister
As SOON as she started talking about the other twin, I thought “no way, she’s sick, but she can’t be THAT sick,” but no. This woman is evil and sadistic on a terrifying level. I’ve never heard of a case like this one.
That part got me too 😔
This case is so disturbing I don't understand how you could do that to innocent babies 😔 my heart goes out to all the families who had to lose a child that young 💔
I can't imagine sleeping good after knowing that you've killed people honestly
I wanted to work at Rampton... Until I remembered that's where she is! I'd lose my job pretty fast and be arrested for murder 😡
@@nicolaholland6913 ....weirdo
The fact that there was literally no motive for what she did makes it that more sickening! I get that we're told that she was mentally ill or whatever, but she knew exactly what she was doing everytime she took steps to kill an innocent child and everything else, so I don't know how much her mental illness could be said to have affected that! I'm just glad that she's never going to be able to hurt another child again! Smh 😒

@@KittiiEarz I feel a little remorse for it but not much
That was a very wicked witch.
@@skippingbutterfly9044 why? She didn’t have a horrible or bad childhood..she’s just a attention seeker.
It is extremely irresponsible that after so many strange deaths in a MONTH the hospital didn’t perform a full fledged investigation!
Eleanor already said that the childrens ward of that hospital was terribly understaffed so they didn’t have time to think of doing something like that. Its not normal that a nurse would kill their patients intentionally so thats why they didn’t suspect Beverly.
I agree - but I know from working in the medical field in lots of different small UK towns, you do get lots of people with similar and hard to diagnose illnesses. Insular communities mean genetic diseases, sometimes horrible ones which are unnoticable until they're fatal, are more common than you'd think. They're also harder to test for, especially on children. City hospitals not only have more funding, but also more diverse patients, so horrible events like this would be harder to explain away.
yeah, there has to be more to the story. they knew what was going on. that is IMPOSSIBLE to not know what was going on.
This case is particularly baffling because, unlike a lot of serial killers, her childhood was so normal?? She is just pure evil
Ayy -ie name gang. It’s so messed up she’s literally a psycho munchausen or not
I guess sometimes it's a perceived bad upbringing and lack of attention. Maybe there really was a difference between her oldest and youngest siblings and her , and a fragile child could easily develop bad behavior from that growing into full blown mental illnesses and evilness.
That’s what doesn’t make sense to me. She was just attention seeking
It's insane that so much evil came from a child who just "wanted more attention". It's not even like she was neglected, she was just needy and couldn't handle not being the perfect only child? So fucked up.
Her childhood wasn't normal at all
Grantham Hospital not connecting the dots or seeing any pattern for so long is so unbelievably frustrating. Those poor babies and their families. 💔
To be fair you would never suspect your coworker to do such an evil thing
Hindsight is 20/20 a lot of the information you are hearing was not known at the time
And nobody would assume a nurse was poisoning them
No accountibilty
I agree. It seems like the hospital itself transferred out more “serious” cases so I can’t imagine there were stable patients flat lining on the regular there. If one nurse had so many saves after her patients flat lined especially within that time frame I would be SKEPTICAL. But maybe it’s because I notice patterns and make connections easily, maybe those coworkers don’t 🤷🏻♀️
The fact that they didn't connect all these incidents only shows how bad this hospital was. Almost everyone had the same thing (cardiac and respiratory arrests) during their near death episodes, that should've warranted an investigation of what was going on and who were working during these incidents. This makes me rather upset since I work with the elderly and I can't imagine there are people who can do this to those who can't defend themselves.
I honestly don’t understand how she could do this to all these children she bonded with? Feeling no remorse either. 🤯
Injecting yourself with ground up glass too 👀
Well she didn’t bond with them for two reasons. The first one being she killed them almost immediately and for two, I don’t think she’s capable of bonding with anyone.
Yeah I don’t think she bonded with them At all it was all just an acf
She is a psycho therefore shes unable to bond and explains the lack of remorse
You really think she bonded with them?
It's mind boggling how nobody thought this was anything to do with the new nurse when out of nowhere all these deaths & cardiac arrests kept happening when Beverley had only been there that short amount of time.
I hope that detective got a badge of honor for putting his job on the line . I mean come on we have to place some responsibility on the hospital as well. They were neglectful . They made it easy for a lot to go wrong. Rip to the babies & im glad that she’ll never get a chance to hurt another baby.
Your cool ❤❤❤❤
My partner and I were sat there trying to figure out how this woman could have gone unsuspected for so long while it’s so glaringly obvious in hindsight. We came to the conclusion that the idea of a serial killer nurse who preys on SICK CHILDREN while looking their parents in the eye and telling them they’re safe in her hands is just so…. Absurdly, obscenely, cartoonishly evil that of COURSE no one humored that thought at the time. Makes this case all the more chilling
it must've been all the more absurd for all this to be uncovered, considering that this isn't the sort of evil you're ever taught to believe can hide in plain sight
Yea no one would think that someone could actually be capable of doing this and to accuse or make allegations against you’re coworker without physical proof. it’s sadly makes sense why she was not caught earlier. Such an evil creature 🤬
This case always sticks with me, my childhood hairdresser was the aunt of one of the victims, who sadly didn't survive. I remember watching her break down talking about it as it happened, and during the trial! Awful awful woman!
That’s terrible
I'm sorry but I want to beat the living crap out of Beverly. I'll probably get banned for saying this but what a piece of s***
That's very horrible..
AHAHHAHAHAH 🤪
@@fatliward9815 i- whats funny 😀
She was only caught doing 13 wrongdoings against children, another to an adult... I just can't imagine how many more there actually were. She deserves more time in prison than she is. Terrible, the pain in my heart for these families. The victims.
She’s not in prison, she’s in rampton high security mental hospital x
I visited this ward a lot when I was a teenager-they turned it into consultant rooms, no beds, they changed the walls and the entrance way, but I remember my mum always reminding me to have a moment of silence for lost children, I assumed she meant for poorly children admitted that had passed and when I got a few years older I understood what she meant
Rest in peace sleeping angels 🙏❤️

As someone with cerebral palsy (dw the reason for mine is just birth basically lol) I immediately went "yup the surviving kids are left with cp", as soon as you mentioned the brain being starved of oxygen in the first episode. CP is a disability as individual as the person who has it, all depending on the severity of the brain damage and the area that got affected.
Living with it isn't easy, but it's definitely worth it! Wishing the people and families who had to experience it all the best 🥰
This woman is truly so so sick, I can’t imagine the pain and anguish she caused to these families, I’m happy she’ll never be released, she can’t be saved.
killing children is different kind of evil that I can not comprehend
Literally even more so when they are unwell and more vulnerable
She's not evil. She's mentally ill. Christ sake, people are so bloody ignorant when it comes to mental illness, this is why this happened in the first place.
What is even more infuriating about this case is that this person, while obviously very mentally ill, was not "failed" by society in any way. Most serial killers are the product of a childhood of sexual and physical abuse, isolation, poverty, neglect etc, and while these are not excuses for what they did, we can at least understand how and why this person turned out this way and committed these horrible crimes.
This woman grew up in absolutely normal circumstances. Her only set back was that she was bullied but who isn't in school?
That's what infuriates me, that she killed these children for no reason at all and it seems we as a society could not even have prevented it in any way. It was completely random.
@@idek7438 you don't have to have an abusive home life to develop severe mental illness. She might not have been failed by society. It's no one's job to diagnose her and get her treatment if she, or a family member isn't going to get her seen by the right doctor. But the children here who suffered were failed by all who allowed her to care for them because she was very, clearly unstable. They knew that whilst she was training and they purposely put her on the kids ward.
@@idek7438 this, I've been thru alot of stuff you mentioned but the love I have for babies especially my baby sister, any child I would never ever hurt like this and so would so many other people it's absolutely infuriating
I can't imagine trusting someone so much that you ask them to be your child's godmother only to find out that she murdered one of your children and attempted to murder the other! That would be so awful! I have twins myself and it would be so awful to lose one, especially to murder!
Colic is actually quite painful and very upsetting. It's a gas problem😉 Small children just communicate through crying and due to the pain, they cry almost constantly.
My daughter had colic when she was a baby she cried a lot until we changed her formula and gave her gas drops its crazy my baby is 14 now😊
My jaw about hit the floor when I heard her say that. I wrote a novel of a comment about it just now. Then I went scrolling through the comments to see if anyone commented about it as well. I was hoping I would find at least one person that knew the mistake she made when talking about Colic.
I was about to say!! I can't imagine that a baby would ever cry for no reason
i’m not a mom and i’m from jamaica where it doesn’t apply to babies alone but technically she’s not wrong cause when i google the word that’s what comes up
In Spanish "cólico" is an acute abdominal pain originated in the digestive system although it's also used to describe menstrual cramps (cólicos menstruales). I assumed it was the same in English so I was a little bit confused by Eleanor definition 😅
When she realized she would get attention for saving the babies, I believe it was when she became Kate’s Godmother, she stopped killing and starred only injuring the children and being the one who would notice what others wouldn’t, being a “super hero”. Hate her so much, poor families!
I honestly cannot believe Paul lived through that high of an insulin level, holy crap! My heart goes out to all of the kids and families of the kids, I know this happened years ago, but I know it still is with them to this day. My prayers go out ❤
I can't even imagine the horrible trauma those parents went through especially the mother its so hard to gave birth to a baby then lost them after to a terrible person u trust with your baby...I dont know how people have to heart to steal someone else joy because there unhappy 😔 💔
It's a deep psychological issue that no emotionally healthy person could ever imagine. My heart goes out to the parents too. It's one thing to lose a baby due to a medical problem, and quite another for them to be purposely killed by a nurse. Unbelievable heartache. 💔💔💔
Thank you for doing this story! This story initially ROCKED the nursing world when it first came out. We have since become so strict that it is insanely hard to hurt a patient, so I hope people aren't afraid or feel anxious about receiving care from us professionals!!
Lucy letby shows you these evil people will always find ways 💔
It blows my mind that hardly anyone at Grantham hospital was suspicious of what was going on, thank goodness for Dr Porter. Out of all the people working there, how was there only one person who thought to look further into these bizarre and unexplained cardiac arrests? I understand that perhaps it seems odd but likely coincidental if these attacks happen to 2/3 children, but 12 in 2 months???! Unbelievable and terrifying. Also very frightening how reluctant the police were to get involved.
Eleanor’s narrations are my fav. I love how clean, clear, and non-biased she is when telling these stories.
I hope the hospital was also held accountable because how did they not notice the pattern sooner? Surely alarm bells should’ve been ringing after the 3rd/4th seemingly random cardiac arrest in such a short space of time. It should never have gone this far. I really hope the parents of those babies are healing. RIP to the little angels ☹️❤️
Obviously Beverly is fully to blame her, but the staff at this hospital were appalling also, not looking into these cases properly. Like, a child has been smothered and they didn't look into it?!
They didn’t have the time nor the eye for that because they were incredibly understaffed. I am sure they didn’t even know that the kid was smothered at the time.
No but I do question how no one even rose an eyebrow about the eerie coincidence that every child under this nurse’s care had the exact same sudden respiratory problem. She had to have a chief nurse and doctors that should have questioned the bizarre pattern and made the connection early. How good of a person someone is shouldn’t matter more than the obvious reality
Not to mention how many times she was the one to "notice" that something was wrong. And it's always the same thing??
@@tabitha4485 Exactly! Always there when things went wrong! I guess it's easier to say that in hindsight now after everything had been revealed; but I'm sure the doctors / nurses did have suspicion but maybe didn't what to believe it or be the only one to say something! 🤷🏽♀️
Exactly. ALL the babies that pass through her crash and that’s not strange??
I’m sure they had a bunch of cases where patients were crashing. It stands out to us because this is all we’re hearing about, but it could have very well been that these cases were few of many and didn’t stand out so much.
@@jessieqk12 mmm idk. I got from the story that this was sort of a clinic, so if they had a bunch of crashings then they should’ve been investigated as well. I get why it would stand out, but to have every single patient dying in the hands of the same person should’ve raised flags a lot earlier IMO
I suggest Faith Hedgepeth’s murder case. Her murder took place almost 10 years ago and was solved only half a year ago. It’s very interesting and devastating
I second this!
That accidentally recorded voicemail still bothers me. I was relieved to see that they'd officially solved the case - finally - but that element of it & her friend's behaviour & reactions still bother me.
@@julietarossetti7426 Yes, definitely suspicious. The 911 call was very questionable too.
As someone with anorexia, I 100% believe that her experience of it was a manifestation of her Munchausens disorder. I actually thought that before you said it. I also think it was two fold: 1) To garner sympathy and be cared for, a sort of return from biproxy to straight Munchausens and 2)It has elements of malingering as I imagine she knew this would delay her trial. Anorexia is complex and isn't always typical. I wouldn't put it past her to both suffer from it and at the same time attempt to wield it as shield to avoid facing up to the consequences of her actions.
yep, me too!
i don’t have munchausens but my anorexia came about in quite a similar way so i can really see it
"The police thought this was ll just a case of bad staffing."

Did you ever have nurses flirt with your father instead of taking care of you? Because I always had one of those when I was hospitalized as a kid as well haha
it’s CRAZY how long she got away with this, i’m surprised the other nurses didn’t catch on, especially since she had history of causing trouble ???
She was at a different hospital then the ones she dormed with, so none of them knew about her past problems.

This video really had my blood BOILING. HOW COULD YOU NOT PUT 2 AND 2 TOGETHER. This was pure negligence in my eyes.. these poor babies and their parents😔
As the mom of a chronically ill child who is hospitalized routinely and will be throughout his life, this sickens and terrifies me. When you are in this situation, facing the possible loss of your child, these nurses and other medical personnel are literally your Gods. They are the ones that hold the key to keeping your baby with you. They are the ones who you hand your child over to in an OR, they are the ones you trust to watch over your child better than anyone else possibly could while you exhaustedly take your first shower in 4 days or eat for the first time in as long. The idea of someone in such a trusted, respected position abusing the trust of these parents and sickly babies- the literal most vulnerable possible beings on earth- is so fucking horrific. Ugh. I do feel like it took the hospitals a bit too long to realize something was up… idk maybe it would go differently today with all the different protocols in place and everything. I pray this can never happen to any other suffering family.
HOW DID HER FRIENDS FAMILY NOT KICK HER OUT AFTER THE DOG THING
I WAS LOOKING FOR THIS COMMENT CAUSE IM WONDERING THE SAME THING
I thought she was going to say that when both kids were pulled aside.
That's what I said!!
This case is so sad. I don’t understand why they didn’t just check the charts to see what staff members were on each patient? Who the common denominator was?
Lack of communication between them all
I was nearly accidentally killed when I was a child. I had really severe asthma and did nebulizer treatments often, so we picked up a prescription from a pharmacy. My meds got mixed up, I was given (expired, thankfully) about 6x the dosage I was supposed to be taking. I started to get sick, and using that medicine and it would help, until it only started lasting 5 minutes. There was some other mishaps when my grandparents called for an ambulance, my town only had volunteer services that took us to the next town for hospital and had three ambulances. The first didn't leave the lot, the engine failed, the second got a flat half way to my house, but because one of the EMTs pushed they managed to get to me.
When I managed to get to the ER, my O2 stats were in the fifties, which. Children are admitted for 92-90 and adults 90 and below. I had to be transferred to a bigger hospital an hour away and spent two weeks in hospital, on the ICU children's pulmonary ward. The doctors said I was incredibly lucky, and had the medicine not been expired I would have probably died, and had the EMTs not driven on a flat the rest of the way to start emergency care, I wouldn't have lived the 30min ambulance ride to the first hospital or the little over an hour ride to the bigger hospital.
Medicine is an easy weapon to wield, wielding it expertly can save lives or take them, and wielding them incorrectly will almost always end in tragedy
Midzolam deserves some research
@@jcllien6932 why?
If you had nebulizer treatments so often, did you parents not wonder about the high dosage? No blame, just wondering and for my advice: If you see a sudden change in dosage without a specific explanation for it (like they only have the version half as strong, but then they would explain to you as well why you would need a higher dose than you are used to.) If they don't, always check if that's correct. Pharmacies can look up the prescription since they usually scan it every day into the computer. Then the prescription would make things more clear. (Although if the dose is suddenly higher than usual, we need to confirm if that's correct unless it is specifically written on the prescription by the doctor).
Same goes for sudden changes in color, shape etc, especially when you don't have meds in a blister but a bottle. I still find it tricky that people only get bottles with the name on the label. Not to make you paranoid but in blisters you can read on the back of the blister. A pill bottle is literally trusting they pull out the right container with your medication. I guess you are used to it whereas we in my country in Europe have usually 28-30 pills in a blisterpackage. Just rarely do we take from bigger containers in a bottle if the drug just isn't available in smaller amounts. (Promethazin only comes in a 500 pill- container.)
@@Fluffy-Fluffy I don't remember the situation clearly, but at that point in my life I had been very sick, often, like in and out of the hospital a lot sick, so maybe they thought the increase of dosage was because of that, or maybe it had been mislabeled? But at the time I was staying with my grandparents since my grandmother was usually home and could watch me. I'd been diagnosed in the second grade and was in the the fifth grade when this incident occured, so I was trusted to administer my meds as I needed. I'm 24 now and my asthma only hits when I'm doing something really labor intensive in the cold or my allergies are really bad.
@@Fluffy-Fluffy look it up friend! Decide for yourself
If anyone is interested, there's an amazing book on this story, Murder on Ward 4. It isn't in print anymore but you can get it second hand online, the author interviews the parents and covers everything.
As a RN I never ever left my babies or children anymore in the room without me. Before any medication was administered I ask what the medication was being given and why. This case makes my heart just break. Traditionally individuals are drawn into the medical field because they care for the well being of others. Just the statistics on this case should have flagged professionals way sooner.
Btw colic may seem like they're crying for no reason but really theyre in sooo much pain, its trapped wind in a baby when they're unable to burp it out (thats why u burp a baby after a bottle, to avoid the pain later on)
Just thought i should say incase ur baby has it make sure to talk to professionals on ways to help. I dont want any parents making the mistake that its nothing and letting them suffer
Great vid xx
Incorrect. Babies can cry due to trapped gas, but colic is not caused by gas. It can be the other way around though. Babies suck in air while crying due to colic that can then cause gas pain.
If you read any number of medical journals or articles on colic you will find that there is no known cause for colic and it is not due to gas.

It’s honestly sooooo fucking frustrating how the hospital didn’t find any of the deaths suspicious after it happening multiple times!! Ffff
Right like clearly something your workers are doing is not only hurting but killing these kids under your supervision
Seriously!!!! That was my biggest frustration throughout this case!!! How did NO one get suspicious
Especially knowing the crazy shit she did in the dorms like she was clearly mentally unwell
Right
It would've been harder to think that someone would be doing this and no one would want to believe that a nure could do such a horrific thing
Imagine all the precious children who die from a deprived medical staff that go uncovered. I can’t fathom..
as a nurse that just graduated last month from nursing school and that did part of her training in pediatric wards and NICUs, this case hit really close home. I just can’t comprehend how someone could choose to do this job and intentionally commit those acts… that’s a whole new level of evilness.
My heart goes out to all the victims and their families💔
Congratulations on completing your training!
I cannot understand for the life of me how NO ONE NOTICED BEVERLYS PART IN THESE ATTACKS?! she just conveniently happened to be around every time these attacks happened the negligence is absolutely horrible 😭
I agree, but since they were severely understaffed that might be why they didn't notice. They only had a few people around to help so it was inevitable that there'd be one nurse as a "common denominator" in all of the attacks.
I can only imagine the pain and trauma of losing a child in this way. It's too disturbing to really think about. 💔💔💔
when you said she pinched their oxygen tubes that broke my hearttt she’s beyond evil omg how could you do that to someone lead alone BABIES 🥺.
as someone who works for the NHS but also within diabetics the fact that poor lads insulin level was so high is absolutely mind blowing to me!!!! that poor little boy (and of course all of the other children and their parents) i can’t imagine how he felt going through that🥺
All it needed was ONE police officer to look into this and prevent what could have been a life-long streak of killing babies and children. Hats off to Stuart Cliffton ( I hope I got his name right)
My heart breaks for the parents.. my son got extremely sick at 2 months old. His nurse (24/7) while he was sedated.. mentioned wanting to put an order in for MORE medicine while we were watching his levels DROP. THANK GOD it clicked to me the medicine she mentioned was more SEDATIVES. I about set the hospital on fire. I banned her from my sons room and spoke to upper management about this. By no means am I a medical professional but my GUT instantly told me she was a dangerous nurse. Not sure what became of her but for 32 days I did not leave my sons side.
😟Oh my god! Thank goodness your mother’s instinct kicked in when it did.
Girl, if your son was with sedatives and his levels dropped, then he was needing more sedatives to keep the levels even.... Dont blame the nurse for wanting her patient to be sedated as its beneficial to the patient. Not all nurses are dangerous, but sometimes they have to deal with histerical relatives.
@@Alejojojo6when I brought this to the attention of the head nurse he was extremely alarmed. He and I quote spoke the very thing that drew red flags for me. Sedatives already bring your levels down more sedatives would only make his levels worse. He flagged the upper management for me while I banned her from our room immediately. I’m sure sedatives can help level peoples vitals but he was only 2 months old at this time and it was the furthest thing he needed at that time.
Not to mention him almost flat lining 3 times our entire stay. The third time was just 4 hrs after THIS nurse put us in a step down unit because he was in her words “doing better and wanted to get out of here” (and I over heard her ignorant ass saying they needed to turn over beds because RSV was running rampant) shortly before His vitals ended up in single digits is when she wanted to put him on more sedatives. I had to actually sound the alarm because of his vitals NOT her on our way back to the ICU a different nurse had to jump on the table and manually blow oxygen into his breathing tub while being wheeled to the icu because he was dying right before my eyes. There is so much more to our story but I’m sparing the details. Not just a “histerical relative” you can miss me with that. If it was not for me being there, I’m convinced they would of killed my son.
And this is a prestigious hospital on the east coast not some small town medical unit.
i wouldve cursed her out
this case is so frustrating, i cant imagine how traumatic this must have been for the children, AND the parents. so many lives were ruined by this foul woman, and it went unnoticed for far too long
My son has had operations in the past and been kept overnight in hospital and I can’t imagine anything scarier than not having the trust of your baby being safe while in their care. It’s too scary to imagine.
makes me never want to leave my daughter alone if she's ever in hospital. I'll sleep in the floor if needed. not leaving my daughter alone after this..
People like this makes my blood boil because it’s so annoying on how they get away with it for so long.
It’s bad enough murdering anyone but innocent children/babies it’s messed up😤😤
"they were so grateful they asked her to be Katie's God mother"
I never felt like this before. I'm just so disappointed and heartbroken because she could've stopped at any moment but she didn't absolutely no remorse
It's always terrifying to me when someone could do what she did and she didn't even have a horrible traumatic childhood. Like... why was she like that. Glad she is in jail forever.
wish it was forever but it looks like she might get out this November...
She definitely had a traumatic childhood. Her parents are likely even better liars than she is.
@Poppy Akers they only gave her 30 years minimum in high-security psychiatric hospital she'll be able to apply for parole, or early release in November. Remember she was only 22 at the time she's 52 now.
I understand the hospital was understaffed, but the more things happen, the harder and harder it gets to understand why they did ring any alarms earlier.
Like it's understandable that respiratory and cardiac complications happen regularly... but the key to the insulin fridge being lost, and the ridiculously high insulin levels... how was no one tipped off?
Wow i feel so much rage towards this woman. How could anybody do this to anybody,let alone children. I hate her from the bottom of my heart.
I understand mental illness and my heart typically goes out to some of the murderers who suffer from some form. But she got off way too easy for what she did. I hope she continues to have a very painful life.
szvetlana is such a nice name
@@briii4742 Thank you :)
@@szvetlanabujtas3031 you’re also very pretty and I’m sorry if I’m coming off as creepy I’m a 13 yr old girl hopefully that makes it less creepy
@@briii4742 Thank you very much. That’s really nice of you :)
the personality disorder they suspected she had was likely Histrionic Personality Disorder. A person values attention so much they’ll do drastic things to receive it. It’s not talked about much and it should be because it can grow into such a dangerous thing without therapy.
Edit: It is very different from just being an attention seeker. I used to think I have this disorder but in reality I was just a very attention seeking person due to my low self esteem and other issues. Idk how to explain the difference. It’s like how a lot of people have BPD symptoms but not BPD. it’s just a matter of how many and to what extreme.
still have 0 sympathy for her
@@hollybeauchamp7135 same. i wasn’t trying to defend her or anything, i was just speculating what the disorder could be. lots of people have this disorder and they don’t murder children for attention, so no matter what condition she has, it’s no excuse
@@niaram couldn’t have said it better
Honestly, not many true crime cases make me cry, but this one has me bawling. I can't imagine the pain the families went through. How can anyone be this evil.
this whole case was so shocking and disgusting but i audibly laughed when she said she missed half her own trial because just HOW did they let her keep doing that its so ridiculous 😭
what a heartless and evil woman. thank you for discussing this case
besides the horrifying story i love that she was so committed to the add she threw her phone to prove how durable the cases are 😭❤️
You do such a good job explaining these cases. Thank you for also being very respectful to the family and viewers with content warnings!
Thank you so much for not demonizing personality disorders. 🥺 I have Quiet BPD and it can definitely hurt when people assume we’re all evil. So just wanted to say a little thank you, even though it was a small thing!
It's shocking how someone this evil can have access to these innocent kids and take advantage of them like that
I'm not sure if there's been a case you've covered that has upset me this much. Amazing presentation as always, but I just can't believe how sick and twisted this monster was, and that no one caught her until it was far too late.
This absolutely has to be the WORST situation I’ve ever had to hear about…. BABY KILLER… like seriously how could they not catch on to her at the hospital! 🥺🥺 This makes me sooo sad for all of these family! Thank you Eleanor for posting this video!
i love how she actually THROWS her phone to prove that the cases are reliable
I actually cried listening to this case , like innocent poor babies ? I just can’t my heart breaks
There’s a massive report in Harold Shipman that we have to look at during studying ethics of nursing. I’m calling this research for my work 😜
She’s actually covered that case I think it might help if you haven’t already watched it :)
omg I feel so awful for these parents and children, in sending your child to help them get better you’re actually sending them to their deathbed 😕
It is so heartbreaking. These poor babies. And poor poor parents. I personally knew a girl that had a disability from a drunk nurse dropping her as a baby. But knowing a NURSE did this to you on purpose must be devastating for survivors and families.
When she said she had only been working there for a month and named that many children literally dropped my jaw like there is no way they didn’t notice and it’s so sad to hear that many children lost their lives due to a woman who’s job was to take care of them just amazes me
I've listened to almost all of your cases and a lot of other UA-camrs videos regarding gnarly cases as well but this one specifically, honestly, disturbed and frustrated me so much! Thank God she got hers and was taken when she was, though it wasn't soon enough. Rip to those poor children and condolences to all of the kids and families permenately affected by her horrific acts.
I still don't understand how no one noticed. This makes me scared for my baby sister to go to hospital now. But I feel like someone would have caught on. Sickening this case.
due to cases like this, there are now a lot more rules in place to keep patients safe,best of luck to you and your sister x
I had to study this case in my childcare course and it was absolutely heart breaking :(
whyd they have you study that in the course if you don’t mind me asking
@@b33-d3g Probably to study how to detect colleagues who could do such things!
@@b33-d3g it’s definitely good to study so people can be more aware of their co workers
I’ve already commented about how awful this lady is, but I’m also astounded at how ridiculous she is. If someone had the audacity to poison my dog and then blame it on a POLTERGEIST, I would throw hands right then and there.
My son was born with hypoglycaemia because they didn't catch that I had GD, he was in special care for 10 days and his nurses were all so amazing. Even the cleaners, doctors, carers, everyone was absolutely amazing. I put my trust into these strangers to make my new born baby better and he recovered after 10 days. I can't imagine not being able to trust the very people who are supposed to heal your child. This disgusting human gives these nurses a bad reputation 😤 to all you wonderful special care nurses, thank you so much for healing our babies ❤️
You should look into the case of Angela McAnulty, she tortured her 15 year old daughter to death, but left her other children unharmed. It's pretty unsettling but I'd love to see you cover it. You always go into such detail about their past and I love the way you tell the stories :)

Yessssssss just sitting down to do some art and needed a good listen. I just really can’t believe all of this was happening on one hospital floor and it went so far. So many children, so many families… if only she were caught the first time..
