A palliative care doctor in Berlin has been charged with 15 murders of patients who died between September 2021 and July 2024. The doctor was originally charged with 4 murders in August 2024 but investigators have uncovered other deaths. More exhumations on potential victims have been planned.
According to the article by Emily Atkinson that was published by the BBC on April 16, 2025:
A German palliative care doctor has been charged with murdering 15 of his patients using a cocktail of lethal drugs.The article by Atkinson continued:
Prosecutors in Berlin have accused the 40-year-old of setting fire to the homes of some of his suspected victims to cover his tracks.
He allegedly killed 12 women and three men between September 2021 and July 2024, though prosecutors have said they believe that total could rise.
The doctor, who has not been named due to strict privacy laws in Germany, has not admitted to the charges, prosecutors said.
He is accused of administering an anaesthetic and a muscle relaxant to his patients without their knowledge or consent.Notice how the deaths are described as:
The relaxant "paralysed the respiratory muscles, leading to respiratory arrest and death within minutes", the prosecutor's office said in a statement.
He worked in several German states, and the ages of those whose deaths are being treated as suspicious range from 25 to 94.
administering an anaesthetic and a muscle relaxant, relaxant "paralysed the respiratory muscles, leading to respiratory arrestBased on the way he killed, the physician likely received training from a euthanasia group.
The euthanasia lobby will claim that legalizing euthanasia prevents medical murders because euthanasia is an option and it is regulated.
In 2019, Niels Högel, a nurse in Oldenburg, Germany, was convicted of murdering 85 patients from 2000 to 2005, and investigators suspect the true number of victims is far higher. Mr. Högel was found to have administered drug overdoses that caused cardiac arrest so that he could revive the patients and be celebrated as a hero.
Cases of medical practitioners intentionally killing patients is not uncommon. Medical practitioners who have been convicted of murdering patients, include: Dr. Harold Shipman, Charles Cullen, Dr Virginia Soares de Souza, Aino Nykopp-Koski and Dr. Michael Swango.

Professor Christopher Lyon, who teaches at the University of York (UK) published a research paper on August 2, 2024 stating that Canada's (MAiD) euthanasia law enables healthcare serial killers (HSK).
It is not safe to give doctors, or others, the right in law to cause the death of others.
When a nation legalizes euthanasia, it gives medical professionals, who were already killing their patients, the legal right to proceed.
Euthanasia becomes the perfect cover-up for medical murder.

In 1993 Dr. Robert Hare wrote a book about ‘Sociopaths who live amongst us’, so they are not always recognisable. It is scary to think that there are doctors in Canada who have free reign to kill patients under our easy euthanasia laws, especially when they have easy means to carry out their killings, under all sorts of euphemisms and a society that condones such a travesty. I know a few of them.
I just did under Anonymous , by mistake.
This is such a powerful point. While it’s not the only powerful point that’s opposed to medical killing, I’d definitely put on my list of exceptionally powerful points. There’s monsters in medicine, and we need to keep them at bay! — Thomas Lester
This a sad and horrific story, and does underscore the problem with legalized medical killing. However, I don’t think it is fair to say that medical killers are “common”. They are certainly not unheard of, as the article points out, but they are rare, not common! Will that remain the case in countries that legalize medical killing? It is becoming part of what is taught to trainees! It is being presented as an acceptable medical procedure - but the so-called safeguards have fallen off, and there seems to be no political will to stop the madness.
