Nurse on trial over 100 killings says he’s sorry

A

former nurse accused of killing 100 patients at two hospitals in Germany says he’s sorry and ashamed of what he did.

German news agency dpa reported yesterday Niels Hoegel spoke at length for the first time during his trial at a regional court in the city of Oldenburg. The 41-yearold reportedly told judges he wasn’t moved at the time by the killings, which occurred over a decade ago.

But now, he was quoted as saying by dpa, “I’m incredibly sorry about each individual case I read about, regardless of whether I remember it or not.” (AP)
