Tap title to read story
A French anesthesiologist, Frederic Pechier, is going on trial for allegedly poisoning 30 patients, resulting in 12 deaths. The accusations span from 2008 to 2017, with Pechier suspected of causing cardiac arrests to showcase his resuscitation skills and discredit colleagues. The trial, starting September 8th and lasting until December, involves a seven-year investigation and could lead to a life sentence if he's convicted. Pechier denies the charges, claiming medical errors by others. The case is unprecedented in French legal history, described as 'dizzying' due to its complexity and scale.
