The following case reveals the difficulty in detecting murder by poison, as well as the addictive nature of the crime. It should also be noted that 6 months before Shipman was finally brought to trial he was exonerated by an investigation undertaken by two police detectives. This enquiry was conducted following the official voicing of suspicions raised by the high mortality rate among Dr. Harold Shipman's patients. But the English police officers chose to accept the word of the doctor under investigation rather than the undeniable evidence of the Death Rate among those he treated.

Where was the communication breakdown in the Harold shipman enquiry?
When things go wrong in the National Health Service, an inquiry is often set up to find how what happened and what can be learnt. Since the 1970s inquiries have been resorted to increasingly often to investigate service failures. Such inquiries take various forms. I don't think there was a breakdown in the communication in Harold Shipman's enquiry. We can see in the inquiry: How the Inquiry was established, the Inquiry team, interested Parties accredited by the Inquiry, chronology of the Shipman case, ministerial statements, terms of Reference, opening Statement by Dame Janet Smith DBE, Chairman of the Inquiry, and transcripts of Procedural Meetings. The recommendations are contained in the Fourth Report of the Shipman Inquiry, 'The regulation of controlled drugs in the community'. Harold Shipman was "addicted to murder", having abused his position of trust in the community to kill his patients, typically through a lethal injection of diamorphine. He enriched himself either by persuading patients to include him in the will, or by forging the necessary documents.

What could have been done to prevent Harold Shipman from murdering his patients?
More control of pharma products. With this case authorities around the world learned just that and implemented new measures as to this problem which claimed several angles of death in the US and latin america.
What did Harold Shipman hope to gain from these murders?
Dr. Shipman is a very interesting case. I believe the primary reason for the murders of so many of his patients was one of gain. He profitted from their death, whether it was cash, cars, real estate or other types of wealth. But I don't think it was the sole reason. I believe that as time went on Shipman began to enjoy the deaths just for themselves. As American Dr. H.H. Holmes did in 19th century Chicago, so too did Shipman. Holmes killed primarily for profit but it is also known that he waited outside his personally constructed 'gas chamber' listening to his victims gasping for breath, enjoying the entire process. Shipman and Mudgett (Holmes real name) were 'cut from the same cloth'.
Why didn't anybody realize what Dr Shipman was doing?
She had 2 children and had a good doctor's face. How could this prolific serial killer go undetected for so long? The answers lie in a story that began in earnest over fifty years ago - in a government-owned red brick terrace house in the north of England. Fifty is a long time to live this kind of life. The following case reveals the difficulty in detecting murder by poison, as well as the addictive nature of the crime. It should also be noted that 6 months before Shipman was finally brought to trial he was exonerated by an investigation undertaken by two police detectives. This enquiry was conducted following the official voicing of suspicions raised by the high mortality rate among Dr. Harold Shipman's patients. But the English police officers chose to accept the word of the doctor under investigation rather than the undeniable evidence of the death rate among those he treated.
