Good NICU Nurse Linda Messo Bad Nurse Ted Maher

Joel is back in the studio on this episode of Good Nurse Bad Nurse! We examine the true crime story of American registered nurse Theodore "Ted" Maher. An unusual circumstance lands Maher a position of a lifetime in the glamorous Mediterranean principality of Monaco, but his dream job soon goes up in smoke. Local media called Maher's story the "Trial of a Century." However, Maher's run-in with law enforcement does not end in Monaco. Approximately fifteen years later, he reinvents himself from arsonist to alleged dognapper. 

Our Good Nurse segment features the incredible actions of Linda Messo, a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) nurse who saved the life of an off-duty NYPD detective on the shoulder of a highway.
