When Quakers Hill Nursing Home hired a new member of staff without conducting proper background checks, they had no idea of the carnage that would follow, as their night shift nurse Roger Dean became one of the worst mass murderers in Australian history. Murder is always distressing, but when the victims are some of society’s most vulnerable members, it becomes even more poignant.Recommended Podcast: Brew Crime https://brewcrime.com/Thanks for listening!
