What this woman did to the poor old lady is just unthinkable, why do they take a stressful job if they cannot handle it?
QUOTE The trial date for Maria Kelly Whitt, a former Lexington Veterans Affairs Medical Center nurse accused of murder in the death of a 90-year-old patient under her care, has been changed to Jan. 18. Whitt's trial had been scheduled for Oct. 12 in federal court in Lexington. Court records indicate the trial date was changed earlier this month to give the government sufficient time to provide records to defense attorneys. Whitt, 33, of Mount Sterling, is accused of killing World War II veteran Jesse Lee Chain, who died of a morphine overdose Sept. 3, 2006, at the VA hospital. Whitt has pleaded not guilty.

This is an old case. Maria Whitt, the nurse and defendant in this case failed to write the morphine dose she gave the patient thus causing other nurses to overdose the victim. Maria Whitt ended up getting just 8 days in prison and supervision for 2 years. She must have been hard pressed to get a nursing job after that.
