- 0:18here with JT. Hello, Hi, everybody. I can't keep track of
- 0:25you know, what I'm doing on a day to day basis, but I
- 0:29unscrewed a wine bottle because I'm classic like that, and it's time to get
- 0:34into this. That's okay, that's why I love you. And we are
- 0:39covering there's gonna be three different cases covered, and we have a special fabulous
- 0:45guest here with us today. Hello, it's Mike from Brew Crime podcast,
- 0:51JT's other other, other, other other podcast. So this is the JT
- 0:58Manaja twas Oh yeah, Well, you know, I can't say I didn't
- 1:03ask for it, and I can't say I don't like it. So so
- 1:07your wine, your brew got JT going both ways. So we're all good.
- 1:15Sounds like a typical Friday night. Well that's about as lighthearted as we
- 1:22get to be today, because, as i'll all know, we're covering Angels
- 1:26of Death. Yes, yes, and JT's case was rough, and I'm
- 1:34sure this is gonna be rough and mine will be rough. I'm gonna just
- 1:37tell you mine a couple of steps up from James because mine involved children.
- 1:45Oh no, So I'm just gonna just tell you, grab your drink,
- 1:49grab your gummies, grab whatever you need to grab, because this bitch just
- 1:55don't grab mushrooms. Yeah right, Why can't grab those? You don't want
- 2:01to be on the Psychedelics and Psychedelics and true Crime bad Combo. Something tells
- 2:09me there's experience there, but still we'll have to try that. Well.
- 2:17But I decided to go outside of my room today and I am drinking nineteen
- 2:23Crimes Snoop Dog Kellie Block. So I wish I had a bong water bong
- 2:30sound effect ready to go, and I'm like, I got a little Snoop
- 2:34dog So what I love is their tasting notes. Notes of chill attitude,
- 2:40bold refreshment with herbal bright citrus flavors with a unique and distinct floral finish from
- 2:49jail. It just needs some skunky notes to it. Why? Why?
- 2:53How do I feel like they just describe what it would taste like if you
- 2:58licked Snoop Dogg's arm only after he's been hanging out with Martha. Yeah,
- 3:05yes, she would give. I love the fact that they are both best
- 3:10friends. I really do that is I would. Yeah, I think it's
- 3:17bizarre, but I think it also tells us that you can be from two
- 3:22different backgrounds, have two different beliefs, and you can still find common ground.
- 3:28Yeah, and be buds. And I would love to watch a movie
- 3:31that was just like a fake rom com between two of them. Oh,
- 3:36I agree. What if their belief system is not that different and Martha's just
- 3:43putting putting us on this entire time? That would surprise me. I'm just
- 3:50saying, like, she's the criminal, She's the one who went to jail,
- 3:53right, So dog Snoop Dogg has gone to jail, But I thought
- 4:00he had a don't juvenile stuff maybe, but he was brought to court for
- 4:09some really serious stuff. But it didn't go through, so it didn't stick.
- 4:14Didn't stick. One of my favorite jokes of all time, And I
- 4:16can't remember who told it, but I know that it was on the Comedy
- 4:19Central roast of Justin Bieber and Snoop Dogg was on stage and a bunch like
- 4:25a couple of the rappers were on stage and things like that, and the
- 4:28person was at the podium and he was like, you know, it's really
- 4:30weird that out of everybody on this stage, Martha you're the only one who's
- 4:35been in prison and I lost it. Okay, Well, I just gave
- 4:42it a goog Snoop Jog was convicted of a felony drug possession possession in nineteen
- 4:48ninety probation. Okay, I didn't give a goog of what the sentence was.
- 4:55I just gave a goog of what his charges were. And then he
- 4:58was acquitted of murder arges. Yeah, drug charges are such a joke.
- 5:03Not in Texas, are you kidding? I don't have to joint. You
- 5:06can go to prison for That's what I'm talking about. It's a joke though.
- 5:11Yeah, you can kill a kid and get less time in Texas.
- 5:15Oh yeah. Typically, Well, George Abbott killed a lot of people,
- 5:17and boy he's been He's still out of prison. I said it. I
- 5:23don't care. I've had a lot of George Abbott stuff on recent episodes that
- 5:30you know what, he's earned it, he's earned it. Just be prepared
- 5:33and be thankful that Greg Abbott is nowhere in this case today, because if
- 5:38he was, I don't even know what it would have been. Because I
- 5:43was born and raised in Texas, and the fact that I did not know
- 5:46about this case until about two months ago. Is shocking because it did not
- 5:54get a lot of publicity in Texas. Interesting, who shut it is scary.
- 6:00So just grab your drinks, grab your ball, and grab whatever.
- 6:05If I only lived in a place I could grab a ball legally, I
- 6:09would I can go buy one from the government here. Yeah, that's because
- 6:15you live in Canada and you have rights there. We don't have rights in
- 6:18Texas, and I'm a female, I have no rights they own Yeah.
- 6:21Yeah, see, I bared my arms unbarreled. I mean I don't have
- 6:29a gun, but I bared my arms. Guns have more rights here.
- 6:31I think I am a gun tone Texan, But that doesn't mean you should
- 6:35have certain guns. That gun has more rights than you too. That's the
- 6:42worst. Yeah yeah, but that's okay because one day I do believe in
- 6:47karma, and Karma will come back to get all of them and I will
- 6:51just sit back and have popcorn. And it's a bitch. That's a bitch.
- 6:58So let me tell you about Janine Janine Jones. Oh, Janine's a
- 7:03new Karen. And I'm gonna tell you. Normally I use last names,
- 7:08but I just had to keep Janine in this episode. Because Janine, A
- 7:15lot of you know, I know, have different levels bunny boilers. This
- 7:19bitch is above bunny boiler. So I need people to give me a new
- 7:27title for people who are above bunny boilers, because I ain't got one angaroo
- 7:31killer. No, I need something bigger. The alliteration makes it very difficult.
- 7:36Gorilla, ye got nothing. Continue, So somebody at me with that,
- 7:43because I need something better. So Janine Jones was a seemingly ordinary nurse.
- 7:49She began her career in healthcare with noble intentions, as most nurses do,
- 7:55to help and heal, But as time went on, a dark and
- 8:00sinister side of her emerged, leaving not only a trail of death, but
- 8:07huge devastation in Texas. Okay, So she was born in July of nineteen
- 8:13fifty. She was immediately adopted at birth, so her mother gave her up
- 8:18after delivery and she guys, don't laugh at this, but she was adopted
- 8:24by Dick Jones and his wife Gladys, and they were a nightclub owner.
- 8:31But I'm sorry, I just like Dick adopt I like I love how that
- 8:39name has made such a transition to where Dick didn't want to be called Richard.
- 8:46But now Richard does not want to be called Dick. But he was.
- 8:50Literally he is Dick Jones. He's not Richard. He is Dick Jones.
- 8:56And his wife's name is Gladys. And they decided to name their Janine.
- 9:01I don't know why, but it's nineteen fifty, but they adopted her.
- 9:03They also adopted three other children, so apparently they decided to adopt children
- 9:09for whatever reason instead of having their own. I mean, if his name
- 9:13was Dick, why didn't you go by Dickie? Then got to change it?
- 9:16Everyone changes their name, what I mean? I changed the spelling of
- 9:20my name accounts right. But Janine grew up outside of San Antonio with her
- 9:26parents. Now her dad have to tell you. He was interesting. So
- 9:31he was an entrepreneur and a professional gambler. He owns nightclubs, restaurants,
- 9:39all of these things. He actually got arrested at one point in time for
- 9:43stealing the safe of one of his wealthy customers who was in his nightclub.
- 9:50He went and robbed his house. Oh my god, that's amazing. It
- 9:54is kind of amazing. I was like, it's kind of cool. But
- 9:58there it was enough evidence. They dropped all the charges. But Janine was
- 10:03like ten years old when that happened. But I'm still like that can cause
- 10:07an impact, Oh just a little bit. That is the most tragic thing
- 10:13reported in this woman's life. Yeah, okay, so why she turned out
- 10:18to be the way she was, who knows. But she was known to
- 10:24be an expert liar and manipulator at the age of ten. Oh that's not
- 10:31a good thing. Ten Yeah, like that's that's pretty early. But so
- 10:39she was only close out of all of her siblings. She was really close
- 10:43to Travis, who was her younger brother. Now, Travis accidentally killed himself
- 10:48at the age of fourteen while building a pipe bomb and his dad's shop at
- 10:56home, right more, what the hell? I mean, that's awful.
- 11:03But but I'm like in Texas at fourteen, I never said, Hey,
- 11:07let me go out to dad's shop and build a pipe bomb. Quite sure
- 11:15why you go and do that? Because this is the seventies, yea.
- 11:18At this point, it's not like you had the Internet to go tell you
- 11:22exactly how to do it. You had to like go find the anarchist cookbook
- 11:26if it existed yet. Right, So, but anyway, that put her
- 11:31in a deep depression. Which it would any child, but this was her
- 11:35closest sibling. And then her died dad about thirteen or fourteen months after Travis
- 11:43did from cancer. A lot of loss, so a lot of loss.
- 11:48So I kind of struggle with the fact that all of the reports I read,
- 11:54they're like she had a perfectly normal childhood with not a lot of trauma.
- 11:58I call bullshit. That's that's some serious trauma. Like you find out
- 12:03your mother gave you up at birth, immediately there's trauma with him, Matt,
- 12:09then your brother, then your dad's. So then Janine was a senior
- 12:15in high school and tried to convince her mother that she should get married while
- 12:20she was in high school because she needed the love, so she just wanted
- 12:26to have sex. Well, mom stood up and said, Gladys said,
- 12:33nah, you're not doing it, and I'm not giving you my permission.
- 12:37No, she didn't get married until right after high school. And this guy,
- 12:45he has so many first names, I don't know what to do with
- 12:46it. But she married James Jimmy Harvey Delaney Junior. Yeah, he's from
- 12:56the zop. It sounds like you were literally listening off children, but I
- 13:01thought it was like four people So was it just that their parents had four
- 13:05kids and they just yelled all the names, so all the kids thought that
- 13:09was their name. I don't know, but apparently he was overweight, wasn't
- 13:15a real popular guy, and she told him she was pregnant, so he
- 13:20said, okay, I'll marry you. That's always worrisome. Well then after
- 13:28several months he was like, yeah, now I gotta figure out how to
- 13:31feed her may take care of his. So he signed up for the military,
- 13:35went into the Navy, and it was almost instantaneous that he left for
- 13:43basic training that her appetite for sex got in the way and she went out,
- 13:50you know, and did her thing and spread a little bit of her
- 13:54pollen around because she wasn't really pregnay, to put it, she might i'd
- 14:00have been after that. So Janine realized she needed to support herself by her
- 14:07husband's off in the military, so she went to beauty school. And she
- 14:11did not become a beauty school dropout. She actually finished. Wow, so
- 14:18she actually became a beautician at the hospitals for patient Interesting. Yeah, it
- 14:28leads into some not so great things, but yeah, I mean, I
- 14:31love the fact that because I can tell you when I was at MD Anderson
- 14:35and going through cancer treatments. I loved the fact that they had somebody there
- 14:39who was used to working with hair that was going through all the chemicals.
- 14:43So when I first started, I was like, that's really cool that that
- 14:46was her specialty. M Yeah. So, well, good news is when
- 14:54James Jimmy Harvey Delaney came home, they actually had a child. So she
- 14:58actually got pregnant, they had a child, and they stayed married for about
- 15:03four years. Okay, well pretty good. I'm like that's not terrible because
- 15:09considered how old she was, way too early to get married, way too
- 15:13early. Well, shortly after she got divorced, her older brother died of
- 15:18cancer. Jesus, I know. So she's had bang bang bang. But
- 15:24she decided she wanted to pursue nursing. You know, she was driven by
- 15:30that desire to care for others and make a difference in their lives. Dad
- 15:33died from cancer. Brother died from cancer. She wanted to go do something,
- 15:39and she was pregnant with her second child, and she was worried working
- 15:43with chemicals as a hairstylist, this she could get cancer. Yeah, and
- 15:48I mean, you know what, at this point, she sounds awesome.
- 15:52I mean it sounds like she's going great. Great. She finished school,
- 15:58got a job, so then sadly, after being on staff for eight months
- 16:03at her first job in San Antonio, she was fired due to patient complaints,
- 16:08saying she was rude, but also she wouldn't follow the instructions of the
- 16:14charge nurse, and she would do what she felt was best for the patient,
- 16:18not what the doctor said. Yep, that that whole I'm smarter than
- 16:23you. Yeah, know it all from young people. Yep, we all
- 16:27know what that's like. Part of me is like, Okay, I get
- 16:32it if you stand up for your patients and you've got their best interests at
- 16:34heart, but you're not a doctor. Yeah. And also because we're talking
- 16:41about her, probably not the patients, we're gonna learn that. Yeah,
- 16:47yeah, she wasn't. She wasn't. So she worked in several hospitals and
- 16:51clinics throughout her career, but it was dear in her time at Bear County
- 16:56Hospital in San Antonio that her actually started getting people's attention and raising their eyebrows
- 17:03and led to a whole lot of suspicion. So kind of like in JT's
- 17:08case, patients under her care started number of explained emergencies and deaths. So
- 17:18all of a sudden, people who came in for minor things wound up needing
- 17:22to be resuscitated. Son of hers. That's not good. That's not good.
- 17:29You want people to come in and have good treatment. Like I said,
- 17:33So now after all this, I'm questioning what I'm going to do if
- 17:37I'm in the hospital again. But that's okay. So she was known to
- 17:40disobey orders and she did what she thought was best. So she would have
- 17:45been terminated except for the head nurse really liked her and kind of gave her
- 17:52some protection. She was always like, oh no, she's nice, she's
- 17:56great, she works over time, she doesn't make us pay her for it,
- 18:02she's always on call. Oh so they just like to take advantage of
- 18:06her because she's willing to be walked all over. Okay. Yeah. So
- 18:11well, then a new director was hired in nineteen eighty one at the hospital,
- 18:15and he loved her passion and the fact that she loved to work with
- 18:19seriously ill patience. Yeah, just take a deep breath. Because he was
- 18:26so impressed that he ignored the alarming fact that children of non fatal conditions started
- 18:33dying when she was on staff, so much so that the other nurses started
- 18:41calling her shifts. When she was on shift, they would say, oh,
- 18:45it's going to be the death shift. Oh that is nugged. When
- 18:51other staff members saying this is gonna be the death shift, you know something's
- 18:53wrong. I know. So one fellow nurse who we're just going to call
- 19:00her Davis because she's had a lot of people come at her for testifying.
- 19:04I never knew that there was like a code call like you have for police
- 19:08officers. We're supposed to have their back. Apparently nurses there's some type of
- 19:15thing like that. So this woman who testified against her got death threats and
- 19:18all kinds of stuff. So we're just gonna call her Davis. But I
- 19:25don't I don't get it because I mean, I like you, I like
- 19:27JT. But guess what you do sound wrong? I ain't got your back?
- 19:33No, yeah, same, yeah, I wouldn't have the back for
- 19:36family members. We're bearing Max's husband, you know, I expected to have
- 19:40my back. But other than that note, but these are children we're talking
- 19:42about. She worked in the pediatric ward, and I think I forgot to
- 19:47mention that but this nurse was constantly saying, guys, we have a constant
- 19:53need to resuscitate children when she's on shift. She's not on shift. We
- 20:00don't have any code blues. Yeah, that's definitely. Ah, that's a
- 20:03worrisome friend. And she would Janine would get excited and seem to get a
- 20:12thrill out of calling parents to tell them their children died. Oh that's brutal.
- 20:19You thought that was bad. She was also overheard on multiple occasions announcing
- 20:26to the staff, Hey, guys, tonight is the night when she thought
- 20:33one of her children we're not going to make it. And sure enough,
- 20:37every time she said it, a child died. Uh yeah, that's it's
- 20:42not giving anything away, is it. Yeah? No, no, no
- 20:47crazy there, right, no, no crazy there. Well, and I
- 20:53will at the end of my story, I've got a couple of I'll give
- 20:56you the kids names and some things, just because I think gets respectful to
- 21:00give that information. Jose Flores was a six month old who was admitted to
- 21:07the hospital for fever, vomiting, and diarrhea. People, if you've had
- 21:12kids, that's pretty common. Shit. Yeah, that's a that's a Wednesday
- 21:17jake. That happens however Monday, yeah, exactly, and Thursday and Friday.
- 21:25But ben't how many kids you've got. That's true, because if you
- 21:29got several. But yeah, but poor Jose, while in Jeanine's care,
- 21:33started suffering from seizures and went into cardiac arrest. Six months old. That's
- 21:41not a thing that happens out of it. M So it took doctors almost
- 21:47an hour to save Jose. Oh my god. So they found that Jose's
- 21:52blood was not clotting, but they couldn't figure out why there was not a
- 21:57medical condition that told them that this ship should be happening. Was that hephiliac?
- 22:03You know, there was no reason. He came in for fever,
- 22:06vomiting and diarrhea, flew kind of type symptoms. Yeah, being a kid.
- 22:12However, he turned around and he was doing much better until while Janine
- 22:18was off shift. Yeah, I like in JT's case. Janine came back
- 22:25on shift and was once again in charge of Jose's care. Under her care,
- 22:30he went into seizures and again his heart stopped and he was unable to
- 22:36be saved. This time they had already saved him and then let her back
- 22:41in his presence. It gets worse, so, upon hearing of his son's
- 22:48death, mister Flores had a heart attack in the hospital waiting room when he
- 22:53was told so while they were helping him to the emergency room, Janine took
- 23:00Jose's body, picked him up, and started running through the hospital to take
- 23:04him to the mark herself, as staff and family was chasing her and trying
- 23:11to stop her. What the actual like fired, Well, apparently it raised
- 23:18a little bit suspicion, So the hospital decided, you know, maybe we
- 23:22should run some tests. Son's not right here? Is it child abuse?
- 23:27Said? The parents? Do something? Is that why the dad had such
- 23:32a response. What was it? Well, they discovered that Jose had been
- 23:36given an overdose of heprin and they couldn't figure out how because he was never
- 23:41prescribed heprin and should not have ever had a heprin in his system. You
- 23:47know what is happered? You know, son thinner? Right, it's a
- 23:52blood thinner. So they give it to you, so like if you have
- 23:56blood clots, they'll give it to you to kind of thing her blood.
- 24:02But what was interesting is while they were doing those tests, Janine took some
- 24:08time off a little bit because she started having health issues herself and went to
- 24:15see several doctors. Yet nothing was ever diagnosed, and a lot of the
- 24:21other nurses, the one who called her death shift, thought she was doing
- 24:26it for sympathy or maybe to distract them for looking at her bed. Say's
- 24:32death I could see it being that for sure. So well, she started
- 24:37hearing Janine started hearing other staff members talk about her and the numerous death and
- 24:41complications, because Jose was the first one that really kind of raised alarms.
- 24:47It had been happening, but that thing they weren't sure. She decided that
- 24:55she was going to start blackmailing the hospital and the doctors because she took copies
- 25:00of all the records and she knew exactly what happened to the children, and
- 25:06she was going to prove which doctors killed the children. And still nothing was
- 25:11done. The hospital just said, you know, she wasn't feeling well,
- 25:15she was distraught over his death. We're just gonna let it go. That's
- 25:21complicit at that point. Yep. Oh yeah. So then Rolando Santas,
- 25:29a one month old infant, was admitted for pneumonia, but suddenly he started
- 25:34having seizures, unexplained bleeding and went into cardiac arrest. All of the issues
- 25:41happened when Janine was on staff. When she was not on staff, Rolando
- 25:49would improve, be great, almost ready for discharge. She would come back
- 25:56on and he would just go down, and it kept it intensifying. He
- 26:00actually went into a comma. A doctor a comma, and a cardiac arress
- 26:06pediatrician was able to save him. And this pediatrician is a freaking amazing person.
- 26:12He saved him. He then had him removed from the pediatric ICU floor
- 26:18and put under twenty four hour surveillance. Good Orlando improved and was sent home
- 26:26with his parents and is still alive today. Yeah, sometimes you get lucky.
- 26:32That pediatrician complained. Still nothing happened, nothing, so she continued working.
- 26:41It was an until after multiple infants died and several had drug overdoses that
- 26:48were saved that the administration decided, you know, we need to do a
- 26:52formal inquiry here into her patients and see what's going on. However, the
- 27:00fear of negativity and publicity stopped them from performing a formal inquiry, and instead,
- 27:08just like JT's case, they transferred her out of the pediatric unit.
- 27:15I would rather know that this happened and they stopped it than to have this
- 27:19just continue to happen, good news for the hospital. She was pissed that
- 27:25they transferred her from working with children, so she resigned. I want to
- 27:30keep killing kids, is what she's thinking. Well, guess what did not
- 27:33stop her from working, because nowhere they put on the file we suspect she
- 27:40did this, this, and this. She went on and got hired by
- 27:44doctor Kathleen Holland. And doctor Holland, I'm sorry, you're complicit, and
- 27:49you deserve everything you've got, and I am okay going on record to say
- 27:53that she worked with Janine at the hospital in San Antonio, moved to Kerrville,
- 28:00Texas, opened her own pediatric clinic, hired Janine to come and work
- 28:07for her, knowing all of the issues. She even testified for her and
- 28:12their little inquiry thing that they decided not to do, so she knew one.
- 28:19That's yeah, that's terrible. So now it wasn't in a hospital,
- 28:25it wasn't a clinic, but within months of Janine's starting as the nurse at
- 28:30the new clinic, seven children began suffering from unexplained seizures and had to be
- 28:37treated at said Peterson Hospital. The hospital was suspicious that so many children with
- 28:45the unexplained seizures came from that same clinic, not from other clinics in the
- 28:51area, but from this one clinic. Yeah, they just opened with this
- 28:56nurse. So doctor Holland said, oh, it's just a coincidence. We
- 29:03work with children and a lot of them have issues. It's just coincidence.
- 29:11Audience. The death of Chelsea mcleland, who her parents are angels in this
- 29:19whole story, So her death kind of woke doctor Holland up. And doctor
- 29:25Holland started looking into the suspicious desks and she was like, Okay, I
- 29:30need to look into something. Chelsea wasn't very ill, she had a very
- 29:34minor thing, went to go to the ear at the hospital, should have
- 29:38been home, and she died. Yeah. I mean this was after colleagues,
- 29:47you know, had begun questioning why all these things are happening. Why
- 29:51does only happen when she is working? Are only the patients that she touches
- 29:57not all these others. Now, during the investigation, the investigative committee,
- 30:03so in Texas, when you open investigation, they put a full committee and
- 30:07it's so it's not just one or two people. You have a full committee
- 30:10looking into different things. Well, they found that two bottles of Lord help
- 30:15me, I can't say this, but I'm gonna try sucking old cliling.
- 30:21It's a muscle relaxent. Never had it, and I've had a lot of
- 30:23drugs, but it's one. But it had been used. They found in
- 30:30the practice two bottles that supposedly had never been used, but there was a
- 30:34hole on the top of the vial and the bottles when tested had been filled
- 30:38with sailing in the stockroom. Oh shit. So even worse. If someone
- 30:45needed that, they'd be getting sailing exactly. So they decided to exhume Chelsea's
- 30:49body. Chelsea's family said, yes, whatever you need to do. She
- 30:55had been given an overdose of suckle cliling. Can another thing pharmaceutical companies?
- 31:02Can you make the words a little bit easier for us normal people to say?
- 31:06But they sure are fun to make fun of. Well that's why you
- 31:07know a cinemetaphene is taylan all. They usually have those like names for us.
- 31:14Pleads go this one couldn't find any simple man's But during the investigation they
- 31:22found a terrifying web because they revealed that Janine Jones had been intentionally harming her
- 31:30patients and administering lethal doses of medication. That was not the only medication that
- 31:38she had been giving them. Hepbrin that and then dialagan she had been given.
- 31:45So they still to this day do not know why she wanted to do
- 31:51this, brand the vulnerable. But before they could take action against her,
- 31:56Janine called doctor Holland from the emergency room, telling her she had taken an
- 32:01overdose of doxapin and that she had to have her stomach pumped. I'd be
- 32:07like, show me the receipts, don't pump it. It turned out she
- 32:12lied, and there was only four pills in her stomach when they pumped it,
- 32:16and she had faked all of the symptoms. M fakes, pregnancy,
- 32:21fakes overdose. I know, It's like, do we see a pattern here?
- 32:25But remember she had no trauma in her childhood, no matters. But
- 32:30so doctor Holland went on to fire her, but it was too late.
- 32:36Doctor Holland lost her privileges yeah at the hospital, and families left her practice
- 32:43and no longer wanted to see her and guys as a mom. I am
- 32:47okay with all of that, because she knew I believe in second chances,
- 32:52not when people are dying as someone who never wants kids. I support that
- 32:59because yeah, I'm so wrong, it's just wrong. Well, even her
- 33:04husband divorced her good so she literally lost everything, and all of it was
- 33:10because people held her accountable for hiring her knowing the suspicions around her, and
- 33:17that they called her doctor death shift. Now, doctor Holland did also find
- 33:23that Janine had all the documentation. It was trying to frame her and blame
- 33:30the deaths on her. Fuck And I mean they both worked at the same
- 33:36hospital before too, so they almost plausible too. So I mean Janine,
- 33:42she wasn't stupid, you know, she evil but not stupid. She was
- 33:47evil but not stupid. Well, this is where it gets very interesting in
- 33:52Texas. Gotta love Texas sometimes and then you gotta tell Texas they're fucking on
- 33:57drugs. And I can say that I can't do because you can't mess with
- 34:00Texas. No, you can. They're on drugs right now? Do you
- 34:05know that that was actually an anti littering campaign originally, And it is because
- 34:10born and raised here, I grew up and at one point in time we
- 34:15did trash pickup back when I was in junior high high school. Don't mess
- 34:19with Texas, and it was to get people to stop littering. I has
- 34:22heard that in the podcast recently, and I'm like, Yeah, it used
- 34:28to be a thing to be proud to say I was born and raised in
- 34:30Texas. Now not so much. I can say I was born and raised
- 34:36in Texas because I left Texas, lived four years in California, four years
- 34:38in Vegas, so I got outside of the box. And I can tell
- 34:43you Texas is on drugs. I mean a BC's on drugs too, but
- 34:47just because it's legal. But we're on the bad drugs. Jesus, we're
- 34:52on the bad drugs. We're not on the d drugs. So on October
- 34:57twelfth, nineteen eighty two, grand jury in Kerville convened and they were looking
- 35:02into eight children from doctor Holland's clinic and the death of Chelsea McCallin. Then,
- 35:10in February of nineteen eighty three, while the other grand jury was still
- 35:14convening and looking into everything, the Granjury in San Antonio convened to look into
- 35:20forty seven suspicious deaths of children in Bear County, where she worked prior to
- 35:27the clinic. Now several of her co workers testified against her. Now,
- 35:35the granjury indeed Jones on one count of murder and Kerrville in several charges of
- 35:42injury two children because no one saw her actually put the medications into the children.
- 35:50Yeah, plausible to my ability. That's what they went with. But
- 35:54she would face up to ninety nine years in prison for it. So not
- 35:59a bad sentence, right. That amazes me, Like, you can't prove
- 36:04anything, but you're still gonna get in nighty nine years. Yeah, well,
- 36:07they kind of could prove, you know, the one murder that went
- 36:12to trial, but then the San Antonio grand jury indicted her for injury to
- 36:16a child for the injection she gave. But they left it open to say
- 36:24she's under suspicion and investigation for many other deaths at the hospital. And that
- 36:31becomes very important because in February of nineteen eighty four, she was convicted of
- 36:37murder and was given the maximum sentence of ninety nine years in Kerville, Texas.
- 36:45Then in October, she was found guilty of injuring Rolando Santos by injection.
- 36:50She was sentenced to another sixty years. That's a total of one hundred
- 36:55and fifty nine years with the possibility of Yeah. At that time, they
- 37:04were unable to try her for the other deaths in Bear County because the hospital,
- 37:12against subpoena orders, shredded over nine thousand pounds of patient records. What
- 37:20the absolute hell that is? Think about nine thousand pounds of shredded documents.
- 37:25That's a lot of documents, with a lot of boxes of documents. Sounds
- 37:30like they weren't maintaining their files for a certain number of years and then dumping
- 37:34them. They just saw the first part and said I can do that.
- 37:37And but remember this was also the hospital that suspected. But they're like,
- 37:42yeah, she's too nice, she comes out all the time, she does
- 37:45this. We don't want bad publicity. We're just going to transfer her.
- 37:49So very complicit. You're going to transfer those files to the shredder. Yeah.
- 37:54So she came up for parole after serving ten years. Hallelujah. Her
- 38:00parole was denied. Yeah. However, being the great state of fucking Texas,
- 38:08she was scheduled for mandatory release due to the Texas prisons being overcrowded in
- 38:15twenty eighteen. Why are we overcrowded because we put you in prison? For
- 38:20fifty years if you have a joint. That's why our prisons are overcrowded.
- 38:25So we're gonna let out this woman who kills children before you're gonna let out
- 38:30the drug convicts, of course, because they're probably people of color. I
- 38:40live here, and I just I don't get it. Yeah, So,
- 38:45to prevent this from happening, luckily, the state had said she's still under
- 38:51suspicion and investigation for these other charges. They were kind of leaving it as
- 38:54their trump card to keep this from happening. Yeah. Yeah, So they
- 39:01decided to indict her, in charge her for the murder of eleven month old
- 39:06Joshua Sawyer, and they were going to go ahead and follow additional charges for
- 39:13the other deaths ninety seven potential charges. Good, and she agreed to plead
- 39:22guilty to one count of murder in exchange for the other murder charges being dropped.
- 39:31And she was really upset because she did not want to be known as
- 39:35a serial killer. Well then don't be a fucking serial killer, huh so,
- 39:40But because they dropped those other charges, she felt she's not charged with
- 39:45more than two murders. I'm not a serial killer. I'll agree to it
- 39:49now. I hate people. I'm just gonna tell you. We put people
- 39:54to death and Texas. I don't know why. And I could not find
- 39:59why she was not eligible for that because in my book, you killed a
- 40:02child. Yeah, I mean, I'm against the death penalty, but my
- 40:06god, someone was worthy of the death penalty if you are one. Sure
- 40:14she did this, but I don't know why. So she agreed. So,
- 40:19and she would not be eligible for parole until roughly twenty thirty eight,
- 40:23and she'd be almost nine years old. So that was part of the deal.
- 40:28You agree will drop these other charges, but she's not eligible for parole
- 40:32until then, and she has to let the families give their impact statement.
- 40:40Okay, well at least there's that. But so yeah, so, Texas
- 40:47State Judge Frank Castro told Janine, your life sentence doesn't come close to what
- 40:54you did to these families and the tragedy you caused God's precious gift babies who
- 41:00are defenseless and innocent. I truly believe your ultimate judgment is the next life.
- 41:07Jannine Jones remains silent, showed no expressions during the sentencing from the judge,
- 41:16and as Joshua Sawyer's mom told her, I'm glad that you will never
- 41:21see daylight. I hope you live a long and miserable life behind bars.
- 41:28She just sat there quietly with a grin on her face. And those words
- 41:32are why I don't support the death penalty, because they should suffer behind bars
- 41:37for people like that. Well, listen, it's much easier to give somebody
- 41:40access to what you're talking about versus training them for the other job. Right,
- 41:45that's how that works, he said, knowingly. We don't have to
- 41:51put them to death, just put them in a population that it will naturally
- 41:53happen. Right now, One thing to keep in mind. Jennine Jones was
- 42:00a mother to two children, a boy and a girl, both of whom
- 42:05thankfully she left in the care of her mother and she did not raise them.
- 42:09That's good. So now provided some information about her killings, but I
- 42:16wanted to give you a small chronological overview of some of the known killings that
- 42:22she at some point in time honestly admitted two. Chelsea McClellan. In nineteen
- 42:30eighty two, she was a fifteen month old baby. She was injected with
- 42:35a leasal doth of suckleacaulleen, a muscle relaxant. Rolando Santos, who was
- 42:42an eight month old baby also in Bear County. She admitted the exact same
- 42:47drug into his system. Patrick Savala nineteen eighty two, a four month old
- 42:53baby same hospital, was injected with heprin and due to complications. Rosemary Vega
- 43:02also nineteen eighty two, a two month old baby who was injected with multiple
- 43:08toxic substances which caused cardiac arrest an excessive bleeding. Richard Ricky Nelson was a
- 43:16two year old boy, also in nineteen eighty two, was administered a fatal
- 43:22dose of sula calling. Joshua Sawyer was the four month old baby who was
- 43:29injected with a toxic substance that they couldn't identify, but also had to hebrin
- 43:34and sucla chlorine in his system. Rosemary Smith a four year old girl who
- 43:40was also given a lethal dose of the We're just going to call it suckle
- 43:45calling, however you say it, Na, Yeah, Guy Anna was a
- 43:52ten month old baby who was also given a fatal dose a sucla chlorine.
- 43:57So those are just a few of the con earned cases that she told other
- 44:02people or documented that she actually killed them. So they estimate over a hundred
- 44:13children potentially that suffered from her thirty to forty deaths. That ninety plus of
- 44:21kids under her care that went into cardiac arrest and had to be saved.
- 44:28Awful. Gross. And she's sitting in a Texas prison and apparently gets a
- 44:36lot of fan mail from guys who want to marry her. Why are people
- 44:42so messed up? Like why would you want to ever talk to in that
- 44:47way a murderer? Like why? Why? And why do they have the
- 44:54ability to go to a library thing and do male email? Yeah, like
- 45:00I could send her an email? Why do you have that ability? So
- 45:06be happy to send her an email, but it wouldn't be very nice.
- 45:08Agree, Yeah, they saved that by the time that she potentially could get
- 45:15out. Because of how long it's been, the families, the parents of
- 45:21all of the children most likely will no longer be living. So if she
- 45:25does get out when she's ninety years old, the parents most likely will not
- 45:30be around to see that. But the fact that she's even eligible for parole
- 45:37in the state of Texas, I do not understand. Well, I don't
- 45:42think a lot of people live to ninety in prison, So it's not like
- 45:45the healthcare is great in prison. True, but that's my case, and
- 45:51I'm just going to tell you I did not enjoy it. I could have
- 45:55probably lived the rest of my life without ever knowing about this person. And
- 46:00considering I now live in the Austin area, which is very close to San
- 46:05Antonio Bearra County, I'm thankful my children were not born here because it's too
- 46:14close for comfort. Yeah. Absolutely, And I think hospitals need to do
- 46:19better. Nowhere did I find that any of the administrators were held accountable.
- 46:25The hospital was not held accountable. They made changes, fired some people,
- 46:30but nowhere is it documented that they made settlements or did anything. And I
- 46:37think that in some ways as a bigger travesty because if they protected this one
- 46:43nurse, who else are they protecting. Yeah, and they didn't fire people
- 46:47at the top. They probably fired people that had no way to actually cause
- 46:52changes. So we'll never know. And the fact that she has no she
- 47:00has no remorse. No, that's my case. So I'm just gonna say
- 47:06stay safe. Question your nurses and your doctors before they give you medication,
- 47:12ask to see the vials, and if you're there with your kids, ask
- 47:15questions. Absolutely, I mean always better to ask questions. Ask questions.
- 47:22You know what, if you look like a fool, I'd rather look like
- 47:24a fool and I have my kids. Yeah, absolutely, or your own
- 47:30life. Yeah, that's all I got. Guys. Oh well, I'm
- 47:37sad to say my case next week will actually probably be worse. God,
- 47:44I didn't think it could get worse. Oh yeah it does, unfortunately.
