This week on True Crime Consumes Me, we dive into the horrifying case of Dr. Harold Shipman — the quiet, respected family doctor who murdered more than 200 of his own patients. Behind the white coat and gentle bedside manner was a man driven by control, obsession, and a secret addiction that shaped one of the darkest medical crimes in history.

From his childhood as a “special boy” in Nottingham…
 to the moment he discovered the power of morphine at his mother’s deathbed…
 to the decades he spent killing undetected…

This episode uncovers how Shipman operated in plain sight, how the system failed to stop him, and how the Shipman Inquiry forever changed modern medicine.

Grab your headphones, quiet your busy little mind, and settle in — this is the story of Dr. Death.
