This guy is crazy!

[Ripjaw]

Who would do such a thing!?!

Welcome to Earth, you must be new.

Yeah seriously, why would he use diamorphine? There must be better ways to kill people.

It's effective because they'll just think it was a normal overdose, and most of the time not suspect the doctor of doing it. Sure you could just shoot someone but that'll get you caught way faster than this. What he did was evil, but he knew what he was doing.

First of all, I was being sarcastic. Secondly, I wasn't suggesting that he should shoot his patients, I was suggesting something more subtle. The discovery of a diamorphine overdose was extremely suspicious because the patients were not administering the diamorphine to themselves, the doctor was. The doctor was trusting that no one would grow suspicious of the increased death rate and exhume the body of one of his patients for an autopsy, so he chose a conceivable cause of death to be used on the death certificate. If he had used an "untraceable" poison or something of equal furtiveness, the autopsies would not be so binding towards the doctor's guilt.
