I can't find that 'nurse strangles burglar' thread but...

...there's a sequel:

...after an investigation, police now say the intruder Kuhnhausen strangled was apparently a hit man hired by her estranged husband — Michael James Kuhnhausen Sr. — to kill her.

The 58-year-old husband was taken into custody Thursday and charged with conspiracy to commit murder and attempted murder. He was ordered held on $500,000 bail.

Haffey had worked as a custodian under Kuhnhausen at an adult video store, according an affidavit filed by the Multnomah County District Attorney's office.

Kuhnhausen and his wife were in the process of getting a divorce, and she told officers "her husband was distraught about the divorce and wanting to reconcile but that she was insisting on the divorce," the affidavit states.

Where to begin. (Besides the part I highlighted.)

Um, at least he wouldn't leave a mess afterwards?

Does being a hitman pay so little that you've got to pick up a side job like that?

There are so many more questions!

A classmate in the nursing program asked,
I was just wondering if this might qualify as “protective touch”?

"Protective touch" is one of the caring nursing behaviors we have been studying.

It's a link to the original story.

Incidentally, the guy who sent the email joking about "protective" touch is a very muscular and bulky, though very fit, guy. I practiced moving him up and down on a gurney, and f(#$&, that guy must've weighed 230 lbs. or so. It was very difficult and took three of us to pull his deadweight up the bed. I could see him decking and possibly killing an intruder with his bare hands.

This is what happens when you hire cheap, non-union hitmen.
