David Crampton's son Paul was poisoned with insulin - one of 13 children attacked by serial killer nurse Beverley Allitt over 59 days in 1991.
When David Crampton took his baby son Paul into Grantham and Kesteven hospital in Lincolnshire with a chest infection, it was only meant to be a precaution.Within hours, however, he suffered the first of three unexplainable collapses."We expected a child coming home the next day. We walked into a room and Paul was lying in the arms of a nurse," he remembered.After Paul was transferred to another hospital he recovered, but his mother still had questions.
Her intuition proved right. Paul, who had been poisoned with insulin, was one of 13 children attacked by serial killer nurse Beverley Allitt over 59 days in 1991.Allitt, dubbed the Angel of Death, murdered four of her victims, poisoning some with insulin and potassium as well as injecting another with air.
