The patient was injected with a paralyzing drug vecuronium but should’ve received Versed, which is a sedative. The drug left Murphy unable to breathe, which resulted in her dying a day later.
“I am just relieved that this portion of the process is over,” Vaught stated after the verdict. “I hope that they (Murphey’s family) are also just as relieved to be moving away from this process that has been held up in the legal system for four and a half years. I hope that they are able to find peace with the resolution of this process.”
The former Vanderbilt University Medical Center nurse was initially fired in 2018 after the incidentIn 2018, Vanderbilt settled out-of-court with the family. Though the incident was required by law to be reported to the state or medical officials, but it wasn’t.
