==2011 Poisonings== In July 2011 a nurse at Stepping Hill hospital noticed that a number of patients had dangerously low blood sugar levels, caused by a number of saline drips having been contaminated with insulin. An investigation lead to the discovery that at least three patients who had died that day did so because of insulin poisoning. Two further deaths were soon attributed to the poisoner, a police guard was placed on the hospital and all nurses were ordered to work in pairs while administering medicine. On 20 July, a nurse named Rebecca Leighton was arrested for the poisonings. She was charged, only for the charges to be suddenly dropped on 2 September in order to continue the investigation in the hope of finding stronger evidence. Soon after police announced that 19 deaths at the hospital were now being treated as murder by insulin poisoning. On 5 January 2012 it was announced that another death, which had occurred after Rebecca Leighton was suspended, had been linked to the investigation. Victorino Chua was questioned due to having been working on the ward at the time of the murder but was released without charge. It was also discovered that after the police began investigating many people had been poisoned due to prescription charts having been sabotaged so that overdoses were unintentionally administered. Chua was arrested in 2014 due to evidence that he had interfered with the prescription charts. When Chua was arrested a letter was found in his possession that he had written to himself rambling about how he was doing "the devil's work". A further investigation revealed that Chua had never even passed his medical exam and had forged his nursing certificate. Chua was charged with multiple counts of murder, attempted murder, GBH, conspiracy to commit GBH and unlawfully administering a poisonous substance. He was convicted of two counts of murder and several other counts of poisoning (it was deemed that most of his victims had died from their ailments and the poison had simply weakened them) and was sentenced to 25 life sentences with a minimum term of 35 years.
