Deadly Machine
S2 • E8 Jan 10, 2002
When the death rate at a rural Indiana hospital skyrockets, an investigation implicates a nurse, Orville Lynn Majors. State Police are left with a daunting task. In order to conclude that Majors is a serial killer, police first have to first figure out if the deaths were murders and then determine how he killed the patients. A two-year, $1.6 million investigation ends with the arrest of Majors on seven counts of murder. With the statistical evidence that spawned the investigation barred from court, prosecutors Greg Carter and Nina Alexander will have a difficult time convincing the jury of Majors’ guilt, and putting an end to his deadly medicine.
