Adrenaline / epinephrineA nurse in the US found an undetectable way of murdering her patients. She only got found out by showing off to her boyfriend who then dobbed her in.
She would inject cardiac patients with high doses of adrenaline causing a very fast heart rhythm that would cause a cardiac arrest. When the patient was being rescusitated he would be injected with adrenaline as part of the treatment - if he died, any adrenaline in his system was written off as being present due to rescusitation measures.
