A German nurse currently serving a life sentence in prison for murdering six patients may have killed 84 more, making him one of the country’s worst ever serial killers,\u00a0police\u00a0and prosecutors said Monday.<\/p>\n

Niels Hoegel, 40, was jailed in 2015 after being convicted of killing six people.<\/p>\n

Authorities have subsequently investigated hundreds of deaths, which included exhuming bodies of former patients in the clinics where Hoegel worked in Delmenhorst and Oldenburg in northwest Germany.<\/p>\n

Police told CNN they believe Hoegel killed 36 patients in Oldenburg between 1999 and 2001, and another 48 people from the hospital in Delmenhorst.<\/p>\n

Police say the number of victims may be even higher but the final number may never be known as some possible victims were cremated.<\/p>\n

In past hearings, Hoegel admitted to injecting patients with a drug that can cause heart failure or circulatory collapse so he could then try to revive them, French news agency AFP reported.<\/p>\n

He said he felt euphoric when he managed to bring a patient back to life, and devastated when he failed, AFP said.<\/p>\n

Johann Kuehme, the Oldenburg police chief, told journalists at a press conference Monday that the number of victims had left authorities “speechless.”<\/p>\n

“The killings could have been prevented if the people responsible at the time — and I stress at the time — particularly at the Oldenburg clinic but also later on in Delmenhorst hadn’t hesitated to alert authorities, for\u00a0example\u00a0the state prosecution,” he said.<\/p>\n
