Working at several medical clinics in and around San Antonio, Texas, nurse Genene Jones practiced possibly the most heinous life-and-death games in American history, Injecting innumerable babies with life-threatening drugs. Jones seemed to thrill in putting the small children in mortal peril and thrusting herself into the role of hero when the children pulled through. Unfortunately, many did not.

Though periodically investigated and even being dismissed from two seperate medical facilities when suspicions about infant deaths centered on her, Jones continued to inject babies with chemicals that caused cardiac arrest and hemorraging. She was even directly accused by a fellow nurse before her dismissal from the Bexar County Medical Center, which conducted three seperate investigations into the string of deaths but could never implicate Jones directly.

Jones was finally indicted on charges of poisoning a four-week-old child in January 1982 and she went on trial in January 1984 on the charge of murder. She was sentenced to 99 years in prison and earned another 60 years in a following trial. Her total kills will never be known for sure, but it has been speculated that Jones may have murdered almost 50 helpless infants dating back to the beginning of her nursing career in 1977.
