Three top Baylor St. Luke's Medical Center executives, including its president, have left the hospital following a federal investigation into a patient death.

Distraught husband says wife of 30 years was given a lethal dose of Fentanyl. He wants to know why.

"It can't be. Why would he do that?"

David Austin was shocked when he found out that his wife was one of 27 people who may have been given excessive -- possibly lethal -- doses of Fentanyl. 
The widower, who is suing an Ohio doctor that ordered the dose he believes killed his wife, was still distraught when he spoke to CNN affiliate WBNS.

"27 people ..." he said in disbelief.

David's wife, Bonnie Austin, was brought in to Mount Carmel Health System in Columbus on September 30, 2018 with chest pains and difficulty breathing, according to a lawsuit David filed against the hospital, doctor, nurse, and pharmacist involved with her care.

William S. Husel: 5 Fast Facts You Need to Know

In what can only be described as an admission, Mount Carmel West Hospital in Ohio told the estate of a patient who died in their care that she was purposely given a fatal dose of fentanyl in 2017 and died moments after it was administered.

Hospital officials added that the case was not isolated; some 26 other patients were similarly prescribed excessive or lethal doses of the powerful opioid, according to court documents.

Intensive care doctor William S. Husel, registered nurse Tyler Rudman and pharmacist Talon Schroyer are all named in a civil lawsuit filed against the hospital. But it turns out that around 20 hospital employees in total have either been fired or placed on leave as a result of the investigation, hospital officials confirm.

As of Wednesday morning, there are now two lawsuits filed against the hospital and Husel in connection with the deaths of patients given fatal fentanyl doses.

Hospital: Doc gave near-death patients excessive pain meds(Sounds like St. Joseph Hospital in Nashua, NH)

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — An intensive care doctor ordered “significantly excessive and potentially fatal” doses of pain medicine for at least 27 near-death patients in the past few years after families asked that lifesaving measures be stopped, an Ohio hospital system announced after being sued by a family alleging an improper dose of fentanyl actively hastened the death of one of those patients.

The Columbus-area Mount Carmel Health System acknowledged the doses were larger than needed to provide comfort for dying patients. That raises questions about whether there was an intentional or possibly illegal use of the drugs to accelerate deaths.

The system said it has fired the doctor, reported findings of an internal investigation to authorities and removed 20 employees from patient care pending further investigation, including nurses who administered the medication as well as pharmacists.

Today Would be my Husband's 68th Birthday had he NOT been Medically Murdered at St. Joseph Hospital in Nashua, NH by NON-consensual Hospice/Palliative care

                        HAPPY BIRTHDAY BIG KNIGHT 

Yes, today my husband would have been 68 year's old had he never stepped foot in St. Joseph Hospital in Nashua, NH. The Hospital we trusted to care for our family. No more! They will never be trusted again.
It didn't matter to them that he refused Hospice Care. There was no family counseling, he wasn't given six month's to live, he was given a year or more and there were NO Consent forms signed. Not for Hospice care or the  Illegal DNR which we never consented to and Medicare paid for. The reason being: He wasn't enrolled in Hospice. That's right. Legally he wasn't. Illegally he was. All documented in his Medical file, but no-one will hold them accountable. You couldn't even prove Lung Cancer, so you let him die of UN-TREATED SEPSIS!
So another birthday without My Knight, thank's to St. Joseph's Hospital.  I wouldn't refer my worst enemy to go to your Hospital I thought the other Hospital in Nashua was bad stealing babies, but you take the cake, Murdering patient's. You've ruined my life and my family's lives. The anger I feel get's worse every day. Some day you will get your's. I hope the Murderer's responsible for my husband's death, employed by you, burn in Hell along with the Hospice bitch that ILLEGALLY came to our home. The bitch that pushed him into a heart attack. I will NEVER stop exposing you for the Murderers that you are and I have made it my lifelong mission, for however long that is, to put an end to ILLEGAL Stealth Euthanasia being practiced under the guise of Hospice/Palliative care.
Happy Birthday to My Knight in Heaven. Life Really suck's without you. I will fight for you until my last breath. You will NOT be forgotten. Not Ever!

Extremely Pissed off Wife of Bill Knightly, Murdered by NON-consensual Hospice Palliative care at St. Joseph's Hospital in Nashua, NH.
