Berlin Doctor Arrested for Alleged Murders of Elderly Patients

Authorities allege the doctor killed four patients and attempted to cover up the crimes with arson.

The 39-year-old doctor is accused of killing four women aged 72 to 94 under his care in June and July.
Fires were set at the victims' homes, with mixed success in concealing the crimes.
The doctor is currently held on suspicion of manslaughter, arson, and attempted arson.
German authorities have not released the doctor's name or possible motive due to privacy rules.
Historical cases of medical professionals committing similar crimes include Brian Nadler, Harold Shipman, and Elizabeth Wettlaufer.
