Every week, another fascinating author talking about the most shocking and infamous killers

in true crime history, True Murder, with your host, journalist and author Dan Zufanski.

Good evening.

The case of San Antonio Nurse Jeanine Jones convicted in 1984 of murdering children

in her care, and now suspected of having killed as many as 16 infants, made national headlines.

A horrifying true life medical thriller, this report by an editor of Texas Monthly, is

written in an understated style that adds to its impact.

Despite her dismissal from a hospital post, weird medical obsessions, a history of lying

and major on the job errors, Jones breathed from one nursing job to the next.

The case is intriguing elements, a young, ambitious prosecuting DA, a naïve supportive

close associate of the accused serial killer, a public hospital administration that suspected

criminal wrongdoing but failed to notify the police and was later accused of cover-up.

Elkind, who spares no one, notes with this may that Jones could be eligible for parole

as early as next year.

The book that we're featuring this evening is The Death Shift, with my special guest,

journalist and author, Peter Elkind.

Welcome to the program and thank you for agreeing this interview.

Peter Elkind.

Very good to be with you, Dan.
