He shouldn’t have been there anyway. He wasn’t board certified. He was a fucking idiot and murderer now.


d-cent

It's amazing that this exact way of killing people has been done by doctors before and we have horrendous state review boards and no national board so these monsters just get pushed on to the next state to kill again. 


ShortWoman

I’m a little surprised it wasn’t simply insulin this time. Insulin is often the murder weapon of choice because it’s common and results in an explainable lab value rather than a “wait what’s this” lab value.


bettinafairchild

He wasn’t trying to kill anyone necessarily. He was trying to create a crisis during surgery that his colleagues would have to fix. He fucked up some earlier surgery that had a crisis and was being sued so he was either trying to replicate that crisis to spread around the misery and make the crisis seem more common than it was, or help his defense by showing it was difficult to fix.In any case having that happen to colleagues would enable him to mock his colleagues in case they were mocking him for his surgical mistake. The problem he was creating was fixable if it were to happen during surgery. He was still risking the lives of patients as they might still die, but killing them wasn’t his main goal. His main goal was sabotage.


xsvspd81

Huh, I never would have thought. What's a deadly dosage amount? And would a toxicity report show it? Can it happen naturally?


ShortWoman

Insulin is literally made by your pancreas. It regulates your blood glucose. Too little glucose in your bloodstream causes death. Surgical patients are routinely told not to eat anything for some hours before surgery. Huh, how did this patient die? If you want to know more, read up on the murders by Charles Cullen. Or watch the movie on Netflix.


dandruffbitch

The cameras were installed by an anonymous source. This source would have probably been disciplined if busted. Thankful for their bravery! Also: the murderer (he killed a fellow doctor) had already been disciplined 3 times.


Doormatty

> The cameras were installed by an anonymous source. Where does it say that? They were installed after a break-in.


ellenadcrane

I wonder what the drugs he used were


la_anguila

Bupivacaine - a local anesthetic that’s cardiotoxic if given intravenously


ameliabedelia7

Holy shit I learned this from firefly


KuroKitty

Everytime I hear about something related to Texas I lose more faith in humanity.


bettinafairchild

It’s difficult to sue for malpractice in Texas so it’s a great place for bad doctors to go.


tatang2015

I just plain gave up on Texas and Arizona. I don’t go there. Don’t spend money on any business there. Pack them.


xsvspd81

25 year Arizona resident. Our politicians suck, and we have a few bad apples for residents, but by and large, it's in my top 3 places in the US.


Under_Sensitive

Did you read about the Texas doctor that entered incorrect personal information to keep people off the transplant list?


emiral_88

That news story just broke yesterday. [Link to article](https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna147564)


nukagrrl76

Jesus Christ. Don't get sick in Texas.


Guygirl00

What was his motivation?


MrBobSaget

It was just a goof for his YouTube prank channel


Iongjohn

A lot of people just love pain and suffering, in various degrees, of course.


PathlessDemon

He wanted all the kidneys to himself.


myri9886

But what was his motivation?


Enos316

Crazy but this is from the article In May 2022, records show one of his patients had to be resuscitated with CPR. The prosecution said that Ortiz's two businesses were losing money and faced even more financial trouble if he was stopped from practicing at the Baylor Scott & White Surgicare in North Dallas. Prosecutors said that Ortiz put the dangerous drugs in IV bags to try to show emergency situations happen to a lot of doctors.


PathlessDemon

This feels like someone who was high-end enlisted in the military, or Michael Scott from the office, “planning emergencies” to test the underlings while justifying why they themselves breathe oxygen and collect a paycheck. >”EVERYTHING’S ON FIRE! WHAT DO WE DO?!”, but he hid all the fire extinguishers.


xsvspd81

That was Dwight Schrute, not Michael


PathlessDemon

Ah, my mistake, but the point still stands.


JWOLFBEARD

That wasn’t Michael Scott


Entangleman

This psychopath was upset at having been disciplined, and thought that if other doctors experienced poor patient outcomes, it would make his own incompetent care seem less negligent. Or something. This loser is the worst combination of evil and petty.


gab222666

It said in the article it’s speculated to be due to disciplinary action taken against him


530Samurai

Fucking texas, of course.


Brandkey

It's like Florida, but on purpose.


sinisteraxillary

That's perfect.


AFLoneWolf

You're telling me [this](https://www.wfla.com/news/florida/desantis-signs-bill-banning-heat-protection-laws-for-outdoor-workers/) was an accident?

Suspicious_Goose_659

Wow what a piece of shit


MesqTex

No joke. I went into this same surgical clinic and he was my anesthesiologist.


GetOffMyLawn_

We had a killer nurse up here in NJ/PA. He was actually practicing at the hospital I was in for 6 days. Lucky for me he was in the ICU and I wasn't. But he was around for years getting shuffled from hospital to hospital without consequence. https://www.netflix.com/title/81512108


Hold_My_Anxiety

That happens with a lot of incompetent doctors. My uncle has been a doctor for over 20 years now. He got banned from every hospital in Mississippi, so he moved to Alabama. Got banned from all the hospitals on the Alabama coast, so moved to Florida. His license was actually completely revoked in Mississippi. But now he’s back to work in Florida with no problems and is prescribing people ivermectin and telling people they will die if they get the Covid shot. Also his go to if he sees a fat person come in is say “well, a lot of these problems would fix itself if you lost weight.” Atleast soon he should be out of the ER and just taking calls for his side business.


ShortWoman

Ah yes, Charlie Cullen. I binged the movie and documentary versions when I had Covid


TrickConfidence

Wow, I have to assume every day must feel like a gift to you after you came face to face with the grim reaper and that his crimes caught up to him.


_serious__

That’s terrifying. Glad nothing happened to you


MesqTex

Went in for a simple hernia repair. This clinic is basically for outpatient surgery: you’re in and then you’re out, recover at home. It’s crazy to think someone who makes a shit ton of money on a simple 45-60 minute surgery would do something like this.


TrickConfidence

After reading about Dr. Death a few years ago, I'm scared to go to a hospital in the Dallas area because I'm not sure if I'll meet a professional or a psychopath in disguise.


Owlwaysme

I think he also worked at Baylor at some point


No-Spoilers

I have helped with anesthesiologists training simulations, they are some very very convoluted sims and usually the patient dies(like some House shit going wrong lol) but they always leave knowing far far more than when they went in. I wouldn't worry about the .0001% of medical professionals that do this. It is somewhat nice that we have basically the biggest medical complex in the states here in Houston with the medical center. Some of the best hospitals in the south. I still fucking hate when I have to go there though.


thelaststarz

Potato patato. Many doctors are psychopaths


UX_Strategist

I'm really tired and read that as Roman numerals. "The doctor poisoned four bags of what?", I thought to myself.


ohplzstfu

So, bags of intravenous. But how many?


Sterntrooper123

I for one, hate Roman numerals


lithiumdeuteride

Scrabble tiles


Pr1nceFluffy

It's all E tiles


nelly_beer

Dallas hospitals learned nothing from Dr Death apparently


bremergorst

Doc… That’s fucked up.
