The Angel of Death in Scrubs | Genene Jones
Oct 01, 2025 Season 2 Episode 37
Kaitlyn

In the pediatric wards of Texas during the late 1970s and early 1980s, parents believed their children were in the safest place imaginable. But behind the gentle voice of nurse Genene Jones lurked something darker. Dozens of children died under her care, their sudden declines shrouded in mystery—until whispers of “code blues” and unexplained injections grew too loud to ignore.

Nicknamed “The Angel of Death,” Jones is suspected of killing up to 60 infants and children. Prosecutors could prove only a fraction of the cases, but the horror of her actions reshaped the way hospitals screen medical staff and track unexplained deaths.

In this chilling episode of GBRLIFE Of Crimes, we dive into:

  • Genene’s early years and the cracks in her psychology
  • The string of suspicious child deaths at Bexar County and Kerrville clinics
  • The medical arrogance and loopholes that let her slip through the system
  • The chilling psychology of a caregiver who created crises to play the hero
  • How her case still haunts true-crime discussions about trust, medicine, and power

This isn’t just a story about one nurse—it’s a warning about systems that fail the most vulnerable.
