Again, I would welcome any discussion concerning continuing these lists here next year.

IMHO, if you have no problem continuing, I certainly think that it’s worthwhile and important information, however, that’s obviously just my opinion only.

So we say goodbye to 2023 and pray that 2024 will be more peaceful.

The list isn’t complete yet:

  1. Late December 2023 Medford, Oregon. Up to 10 dead. Injected with tap water by nurse stealing fentanyl.

The hospital isn’t saying anything and the police aren’t saying anything so this hasn’t been confirmed–so it hasn’t hit the national media yet.

Or perhaps this doesn’t meet Paul’s definition of a mass killing as they probably didn’t all happen the same day.

The article is a mess. It is not clear as to when the killings happened. What the project requires is a series of killings in a “single emotional event.” That is to say I am looking for spree killings, not serial killings.

Gosh I hope this list is done. Very depressing.

If it gets too peaceful, you’ll need a new hobby.

Damned little need to worry about that happening. Unfortunately.
