Ohio doctor accused of 14 hospital patient deaths by ordering excessive painkillers found not guilty of all murder counts.
COLUMBUS, Ohio — A jury on Wednesday acquitted an Ohio doctor accused of ordering excessive amounts of painkillers that led to multiple patient deaths at a Columbus-area hospital following a weekslong trial.
Franklin County Judge Michael Holbrook told jurors before the start of deliberations that they could also consider lesser charges of attempted murder. They deliberated for six days. By contrast, defense lawyers called a single witness — a Georgia anesthesiologist — to testify that Husel's patients died from their medical conditions and not Husel's actions. The defense rested on March 31 after one day.
Husel attorney Jose Baez said prosecutors hadn't produced"a shred of evidence" to back up their claims.
