Hamburg Nurse's Theft from Patient Upholds Probation Sentence
A Hamburg district court ruling that a nurse stole from a patient and was sentenced to probation has been upheld following an unsuccessful appeal.
Upon the patient's arrival at the clinic by ambulance, the nurse was reportedly standing outside smoking. The patient's wallet, containing credit card, debit card, and respective PIN numbers, was on the stretcher next to him. The wallet fell unnoticed by the patient and rescue team.
The nurse clandestinely picked up the wallet and walked away with it, subsequently withdrawing €1860 from the patient's account. The patient later passed away due to complications from a heart attack.
In an attempt to overturn the district court's verdict, the nurse brought her case to the higher regional court, but the appeal was denied.
