I wounder what the inmates will do with him if they get the chance :( A terrible person
 
He hasn't been found guilty yet, so prison sentence is speculation. Let's wait until expressing opinions, to give judicial process a fair chance.
 
I feel sorry for the nurse that was imprisoned for 6 weeks with no charge. Also the poor relatives.
