BREAKING: Dr. William Husel who was accused of administering deadly doses of fentanyl to critically ill patients has been found not guilty

An Ohio doctor accused of administering deadly doses of fentanyl to critically ill patients has been found not guiltyDr. William Husel, who worked as an ICU physician in the Cincinnati suburb of Mount Carmel, was indicted in 2019 on 25 counts of murder—11 of which were dismissed at prosecutors’ request last December, three weeks before the trial started. The government reportedly opted to limit its case, but never specified its exact reasoning for the move.

“There is no such thing as a medical murder case,” Baez said in his opening arguments. “And…this is not a murder case, and it’s far from it.
