September 6th: Joseph Michael Swango was Sentenced (2000) The idea that someone who is supposed to save your life is actually a serial killer is a reality that most can’t even comprehend. On September 6th 2000 a man was sentenced for just a fraction of his many crimes. A man who, time and time again, swore an oath to do no harm and, instead, may have killed as many as 60 of his patients.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Swango, https://www.thoughtco.com/profile-of-joseph-michael-swango-973127, https://murderpedia.org/male.S/s/swango-michael.htm, https://unsolvedmysteries.fandom.com/wiki/Michael_Swango, https://www.dispatch.com/photogallery/OH/20190205/PHOTOGALLERY/128009994/PH/1 Learn more about your ad choices.
