A Pennsylvania nurse previously facing a slew of felony offenses for allegedly killing and trying to kill patients in her care was recently charged again – to the tune of dozens of new criminal charges.
Heather Pressdee, 41, stands accused of intentionally administering excessive doses of insulin to 22 patients between 2020 and her arrest in May of this year, according to the state attorney general’s office. She was initially accused of killing two patients and attempting to kill a third while she worked at Quality Life Services in Chicora – a small town in the western part of the state.
In a Thursday press release, Pennsylvania Attorney General Michelle Henry accused her of poisoning 19 additional patients.
