About this episode

Kristen Gilbert was a nurse who committed at least four murders at a VA hospital in Massachusetts. But, authorities believe she could be responsible for many more deaths, maybe upwards of one hundred. This comes from the fact that during her time at the hospital, Kristen was on duty for more than 100 deaths.

Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss Kristen Gilbert. Kristen had a good childhood and many people who knew her had positive things to say about her. The one thing that has come up was that she craved attention and would lie and manipulate people to get that attention. Authorities believe this constant need for attention also had something to do with her murders. Did she murder to get the attention of a man in her life? Or, did she murder while trying to set up emergency situations where she could swoop in and get attention by being the savior?
