Benjamin Geen aged 25 years old who was a British nurse was sentenced for life in jail yesterday for murdering two men and seriously harmed 15 others which he injected with deadly drugs and had not been bought back to life.
This incident had taken place at Horton General Hospital in Banbury, Oxford. Geen had said "I maintain mt innocence. I wish to lodge an appeal".
Casualty staff nurse Geen used muscle relaxants, insulin and sedatives to stop patients breathing. When he was arrested, he had a syringe full of muscle relaxant in his pocket. 
Geen was convicted of murdering diabetic David Onley, 75, and cancer sufferer Anthony Bateman, 65, at Horton General Hospital in Banbury, Oxon. 
Geen "came alive" and looked "Elated" when patients went into respiratory failure, Oxford Crown Court heard. He once wore a santa claus hat as he injected a patient with a cocktail of drugs.
After his arrest the number of unexpected deaths at the hospital dropped to almost nil. After the case, ex-policeman Robert Robinson, 54, who survived one of Geens attacks, said "Justice has been done. i can now put this behind me".
