Fox News: Texas doctor who poisoned patients with tainted medical IV bags sentenced to 190 years
Texas anesthesiologist Raynaldo Rivera Ortiz, Jr. has been sentenced to 190 years in prison for injecting lethal substances into patients' IV bags. Convicted on multiple counts of tampering with consumer products, Ortiz's actions were likened to attempted murder by U.S. Attorney Leigha Simonton.
The trial revealed that Ortiz's tampering led to serious cardiac emergencies, including the death of a fellow doctor. Victims and their families spoke of the lasting trauma caused by his actions, with one victim's family expressing a profound mistrust of medical professionals as a result.
