The level of negligence in this case is awful. Those were peoples’ grandparents, parents, siblings, friends. They may have been old or terminal but they still deserved to live out the rest of their days peacefully. He robbed them of what little time they had left and that’s cruel. He spared them no time to say goodbye.

Hi there. His both his surgeries was in Hyde from 1979, he was tried in Ashton under Lyne courts. :)

@@TakemesomewhereniceMCR ..I been to the Ashton Under Lynn courts one time when I was a witness to a violent attack, the courts there don't mess around at all. I am a British American and was raised between Ashton-Under-Lynn and Florida all my life since childhood. My ex and daughters were both his patients at one time. I seen him a couple times for diabetic meds but nothing past that. He always have me a uneasy feeling when I did see him. Bought a home in Florida so I am back in Florida now but my two daughters are still in Ashton-Under-Lynn and go back near every year or they come to Florida.

My only 2 critiques (bcs I do want this channel to thrive) as a film-student, etc are: the narrator is somewhat robotic, perhaps reading the script more times would help - I say this bcs I do the same unintentionally. Lastly, his motives weren't unknown, if anything, they are spelled out amongst his crimes, and own words - so that sentence at the beginning did turn me off for a bit, the rest of the video, however, was much more informative than most regarding this particular case. Thank You for keeping the Unsolved Legacy active
@Internationale7 3 роки тому
Agreed, I really love the Unsolved channel but the narrators for these kinda vids always let them down.
@Faith-rm5ls 3 роки тому
Hi, film grad and current employee at WB, the video is supposed to be informative rather than comedic like older unsolved videos, so it’s more appropriate for the narrator to be more monotone/robotic because she isn’t giving her own opinion or bias. And although we may be able to see patterns and essentially get at why he did that, he never explicitly said WHY, we can only speculate. So by definition, his motive is unknown. Great perspective and input but those changes would not necessarily make the video better or worse
@hotpinkcrayolas 3 роки тому

I live in Wakefield & people still talk about Shipman to this day - he was kept in an underground cell at HMP Wakefield and complete isolated from other inmates. HMP Wakefield is an incredibly high security prison that houses some of England’s most prolific murderers, rapists and paedophiles. It’s worth reading the prison’s Wikipedia page!
@matewhatthefuck6516 3 роки тому
He actually told his new colleagues after his rehabilitation of his struggle with drug addiction. Because of his honesty and supposed genuine regret of that past, they hired him. There's a better, longer documentary about him on a British programme called Real Stories, if I'm not mistaken. He got caught because he hurriedly forged a will of his last victim, bequeathing him all of the old lady's estate. Her daughter was in the legal field and caught wind of this and investigated. It then led to the unpacking of his whole affairs. This video really isn't making justice of the interesting, but sinister tale of this guy.

Cases like these are why I don't trust health professionals. They can say and do so much with little to no repercussions under the guise of helping the sick and in need. I am highly apprehensive when I go to any doctor because their word is valued so much more over the word of patients and their families.
@Nessainthebuilding 3 роки тому
People do have a tendency of holding doctors at some higher esteem which I don't get. They just went to school for a really long time. They're just human beings like the rest of us. Maybe I feel that way because my mom is a nurse and she's always questioning doctors and whenever she has a difficult one (by which I mean horrible bedside manner) she tells them off or reports them
