Well, he got himself a job as a nurse for - the police dept.

It's irresponsible of former Sheriff Everett Rice to have hired a male nurse without even interviewing him face-to-face.

Didn't Rice know that male nurses are much more likely to kill than female nurses are?

Angels of Death, the Male Nurses

Male nurses are disproportionately represented among caretakers who harm patients. While there are many more cases, quantitatively, of females who indulge in this behavior, Beatrice Yorker, Director of the School of Nursing at San Francisco State University, cites a striking statistic:  the 146,000 male registered nurses represent 5 to 7 percent of all nurses yet are responsible for more than one-third who have killed patients in the U.S. since 1975.
