Harold Shipman: The Killer Doctor

Beskrivelse

Harold Shipman: The Deadly Doctor 13 Aug 2024 --- Doctors are among the most trusted members of our society. There’s a good reason for this: we entrust them with our most valuable commodity, our health. People share things with their doctors that they keep secret from everyone else, even their closest loved ones. When we are sick or injured, we trust doctors to call upon their vast knowledge of the human body to make us feel better, and in many cases, to keep us alive. This, however, is a story of a doctor who did the exact opposite of what he was supposed to. Harold Shipman took advantage of the tremendous power he held over his patients in order to victimize them. He murdered hundreds of them in a grisly career that spanned over two decades, for no apparent reason other than because he could. For a long time, he was able to get away with it, using the exalted position his profession held in society to assure grieving relatives that their loved one had died a natural death in order to conceal his guilt. #truecrimestories #serialkillerdocumentary #haroldshipman What made Shipman so much more insidious than other serial killers was that he wasn’t killing strangers. He was beloved by his patients; his victims welcomed him into their homes and willingly rolled up their sleeves to receive the injection that would end their lives. He preyed on some of the most vulnerable members of society: elderly women who lived alone. Only after he was caught did people realize the enormity of what he had done: his body count marks him as the world’s most prolific serial murderer. → Subscribe for new videos at least twice a week! https://www.youtube.com/c/biographics?sub_confirmation=1 Love content?

Francis Galton: The Man Who Invented Eugenics

Francis Galton: The Man Who Invented Eugenics 14 Sep 2023 --- Great Britain in the 19th Century was a hotbed for scientific and technological innovation. Scholars, scientists, inventors, and theorists of the age laid the foundations for many of the wonders of the 20th Century and the contemporary era. Not all of these inventions and ideas were for the better, however. Even if conceived with the best intentions in mind, they would pave the way for some of the worst horrors that would darken the skies of Europe and beyond. Today's biography concerns one of the most damaging "scientific" theories ever to be considered by human minds. → Subscribe for new videos at least twice a week! https://www.youtube.com/c/biographics?sub_confirmation=1 Love content?
