The Doctor Who Smiled as Patients Secretly Turned to Dust

A strand of hair sent from Zimbabwe to a lab in Pretoria led Interpol to a doctor at O'Hare in June 1997 - not a confession, not a witness. He had worked across the United States and southern Africa, patients died around him, estimates reached as high as sixty; how did institutions repeatedly let him pass until federal agents stopped him at the gate?
In this episode, we tell how the case unfolded across hospitals, ambulance corps, military service, and courtrooms, tracing the poison and the paperwork that protected him - what happened between 1983 and 1997 that left so many deaths unresolved?
Person: James Michael Swango
Date (arrest at O'Hare): June 1997
Conviction: aggravated battery, August 23, 1985
Sentence: five years in prison
Court event: judge read defendant's words on September 6, 2000

- Swango was convicted on August 23, 1985, and sentenced to five years, then released in 1989.
