DESCRIPTION
Review
Charles Cullen is thought to be responsible for the deaths of as many as 400 patients during his career as a nurse... His crimes are outlined in The Good Nurse, an absorbing tale that's simultaneously terrifying and barely credible... A standout true-crime book, one that doubles as both a thrilling horror story and a cautionary tale --Boston Globe The most terrifying book published this year. It is also one of the most thoughtful... The Good Nurse is gripping, sad, suspenseful, rhythmic and beautifully documented (the endnotes to this book are impressive). --Kirkus Reviews Graeber doesn't pull punches... A deeply unsettling addition to the true crime genre. --Publishers Weekly

Most patients go to hospitals when they are extremely ill. They hope to get better and be treated by competent and caring staff. Nurses, especially, are in the front and center of patient care. It is ironic, then, that Charlie Cullen, a board licensed nurse was a serial killer, preying on the sick and dying at nine different hospitals for years. Estimates of his victims hover around 300 patients. He is one of the worst serial killers known. It is also astounding that he got fired or was asked to resign from each of these hospitals and all but one never even reported him to the nursing board.
Charlie Cullen failed at many things that he tried. He got into a lot of trouble in the navy and was afraid he'd get a dishonorable discharge, had his marriage fall apart, and was a loner without friends. People found him weird and unlikable. He had a criminal record for stalking and breaking and entering. He was a raving alcoholic who would hole himself up in the basement and consume large amounts of alcohol. If alcohol wasn't available he'd use Listerine or some other compound containing alcohol. He had a history of killing animals and it's even probable that he poisoned his sister's abusive boyfriend when he was still a teenager.
His modus operandi was to inject patients with insulin or digoxin or other lethal medications and wait till they died. Sometimes he'd steal drugs from the medicine closets in the hospitals and not even use them. It was as if he was calling for help and no one came. He had a history of multiple suicide attempts or gestures. He liked the ride in the ambulance to the emergency room and having people take care of him. He spent months in psychiatric hospitals for depression, alcoholism and various other psychiatric problems.
