If you mean by life code, hippocratic oath, then Dr. Shipman broke it when he harmed or killed his patients. The hippocratic oath dates back to ancient Greece when medicine was in it's infancy. In part is says 'first do no harm', ect. It is obvious that Shipman must have forgotten his oath, due to the fact that his victim list was in excess of 200 names.

How did Dr Harold Shipman get caught?

The coroner was alerted to the unusual death rate of Shipman's patients by a local Funeral director and the local crematorium in March 1998. He was questioned but the police found insufficient evidence of any wrong doing. He killed a further 3 patients including the former Mayor of Hyde, Kathleen Grundy in June and he forged a will leaving himself £385,000. Grundy's daughter was a lawyer and her solicitor was suspicious about the will, so she informed the police. Shipman was found to own a typewriter of the same model that was used to type the will. When Grundy's body was exhumed it was discovered to contain a high level of Diamorphine. This added up to a lot of circumstantial evidence against Shipman. Further investigations revealed that he had altered records of his visits to patients on his Computer, making it appear that he had visited them earlier than the day that they died. This was the first tangible evidence of any misconduct by Shipman.


Why is Fred Shipman considered one of the worst serial killers in recent history since his murders seem less violent than most others?

Dr. Shipman's physical appearance and demeanor lead one to believe he was a benevolent father-figure. Nothing could be farther from the truth. It is believed that Shipman killed for gain, which it correct. He was a con artist after monetary gain. But at some point Dr. Shipman begain to enjoy the killing for killing's sake itself. Most serial murder is about power, I think this is true of Shipman also. He enjoyed watching the life slip from his patients, enjoyed the powerful feelings it gave him. Yes Dr. Shipman killed for money initially, but found he enjoyed the feelings he derived from his murderous acts.
