147 - Dangerous Medicine?
Conor McInnerney stopped breathing while breastfeeding and was rushed to the hospital in 1998. Eugene Turner, a doctor on the case, was charged with murder after a nurse saw him smother the child. Murder charges were eventually dropped and Turner was censured by the State Quality Assurance Commission. Dr. Bruce Rowan, his colleague in ER that night, was later accused of murdering his wife and was found not guilty by reason of insanity when he claimed that Turner's act triggered a psychotic episode.
