Benjamin Geen
A HOSPITAL nurse serving life for the murder of two patients was back in court today as part of his bid to have his convictions overturned.
Benjamin Geen, 29, from Orchard Way, Banbury, was jailed for life with a minimum term of 30 years in May 2006 after he was found guilty of murdering the patients at Banbury's Horton Hospital.
The staff nurse was accused of injecting patients with drugs which caused them to stop breathing, and was found to have caused grievous bodily harm to a further 15 people being treated at the hospital.
Geen, who has always protested his innocence, is applying for permission to challenge his convictions as "unsafe".
He watched his QC present submissions to three Court of Appeal judges in London.
