      I had a hard time understanding this as well. It's not like he would be benefitting financially from the deaths (or near-deaths) of these patients directly. It seems more like the first incident was actually an accident, due to negligence or incompetence on his part. He was then basically suspended from that one facility, which means he'd be making less money. So, to "prove" it wasn't his fault he started tainting the IV bags so *other* doctors would have the same thing happen. I guess he either planned to make it look like "it could happen to anyone" or he planned to create a scapegoat in the tainted bags either blaming the manufacturer or some "unknown" suspect doing it. Either way I guess the goal was to reinstate him so he could get more work and keep making money. Convoluted and deranged but that's what it seems happened.

      He tried to show that "emergency situations happen to other doctors," thereby taking the focus away from his own bad patient outcomes.
      They were getting rid of him and he had mounting debt. He was desperate, and tried to frame / set-up other anesthesiologists to make them look incompetent like him (Ortiz).

      He was being reviewed for a patient going into cardiac arrest in his own clinic for the second time. He was likely going to lose his licence and not be able to practice anymore. He was desperate to not lose his job. So he poisoned these people at other doctors' clinic he worked at, to make the other clinics look bad too.
      That's how it all ties together. But in my opinion he's just a sociopath that wants to murder people.

I don’t mind being corrected by others as long as it is done in a respectful manner. Would you rather continue to misspell words and appear ignorant in the eyes of others, or would you rather be thankful that someone thought enough of you to lend a little help? Please remember, that there are some people who would revel in knowing that you misspelled words, because they themselves are lacking in knowledge as well.

I guess it’s worthwhile to try to argue he wanted revenge against a hospital pursuing disciplinary action, or that he wanted to show other anesthesiologists also have complications, but I think if I were the prosecutor I’d mention those but my main focus would be on proving the elements of the alleged crimes.

    When the story originally broke, they talked about the fact that he had just been reprimanded on his job or had received a poor performance evaluation. I feel like he believed he would look better against his coworkers if they had patients who died. A normal person would never think that, but he’s obviously a sociopath.

    You can tell that this man was miserable. What was the motive to even tamper with IV bags for? Is that how miserable his life was? This just goes to show you that money cannot buy you happiness. He had a house worth over $1 million along with expensive cars, and none of that can change, the outcome of the reality....
    This was a man that had mental issues because of personal problems that are probably linked to dating. According to another report that I read about him with a little more telling about his personal life and how abusive he was to his ex-girlfriends. I am even suspecting that he was a very vain doctor and he knew that if he wanted a certain type of woman, he knew that he was at her mercy for acceptance of his self-worth. Many of the victims were women as a matter fact, or if not all of them were if I'm not mistaken.
    A lot of personal turmoil in his mind and the red flags that were said before should have immediately put him out of his duties.
