The unnamed doctor was part of a palliative care team and was first linked to the deaths of four patients between June and July. In November, authorities discovered evidence suggesting he had killed four more individuals, with two additional cases identified recently through file reviews and forensic examinations. One case involves the suspected murder of a 25-year-old woman in September 2021 using a lethal drug mixture. Another case concerns the death of a 57-year-old woman last June under similar circumstances. Prosecutors stated that the suspect appears to have acted without motive other than murder itself.
