"Prescription for Murder: Dr. Shipman’s Lethal Medicine Cabinet"

Criminal Empire: Mafia Mysteries & Serial Killers - A podcast by Charlie Outback - Fridays

He wasn’t a deranged outcast—he was your trusted GP. Harold Shipman murdered 250+ patients using homemade morphine cocktails, falsified records, and society’s blind faith in white coats. How did Britain’s worst serial killer operate for 23 years? We expose the "Shipman Shift" (patients dying after 3 PM), the forged wills naming him beneficiary, and the funeral director who noticed too many coffins. From grave exhumations to the damning audit that trapped him, learn why his case forced global healthcare reforms. Would you recognize a healer-turned-reaper?
