The former nurse pictured in court in November 2014
A former German nurse has admitted killing 30 patients in the hospital where he worked, a court was told.
The 38-year-old allegedly confessed to taking the lives of the patients by injecting them with an overdose of heart medication.
He made the confession to a psychiatric expert who relayed the evidence in court.
Investigators said his motive was to improve his own resuscitation skills.
The former nurse has been on trial since September and is accused of murder and attempted murder.
He is alleged to have killed three patients and tried to kill two others at a clinic in Delmenhorst, near Bremen in north Germany.
But a psychiatric examiner told the court in nearby Oldenburg that he had confessed to as many as 30 killings.
The patients are believed to have been injected with heart medication between 2003 and 2005.
In a further 60 cases he injected patients but managed to revive them, according to the psychiatric assessor.
Police are investigating more than 100 suspicious deaths at the Delmenhorst clinic.

Someone should have told her that the T4 Program ended 70 years ago.
HIM.
Wouldn’t the overdose show up in the postmortem tox screen?
That was very sexist of you to assume that a nurse is always a woman. Please report to the Barry Obama School of ReEducation.
Charles Cullen. Killed 40 for sure, may have killed hundreds.
Hospital staffs knew about him, but fired him without making a fuss. Gave him good recommendations, so he moved on.
No one in the various hospital's "administration" wanted the hassle of turning him in.

He.
They probably wanted to avoid liability...which makes the accomplices
