Shocking: Hungarian nurse poisons her colleagues for a year
Change language:
A Hungarian nurse was poisoning her five co-workers with tranquillisers and sedatives for over a year. She had no reasonable explanation for her actions; she merely wanted to know what will happen to them. She regularly put the drugs in their coffee or water. She was sentenced to two years in prison.

The woman has been working as a nurse at the neuro-rehabilitation department at a hospital in Pécs, Baranya county since November 2015.
The woman was putting different kinds of tranquillisers and sedatives, used in the hospital, into her colleagues’ coffee and water. According to her testimony, she was merely experimenting, and she wanted to find out how the drugs will affect her other colleagues.
She was carrying out this wicked experiment for months, sometimes poisoning her colleagues’ drinks not even once, but a couple of times a week.
