VANCOUVER — A fake nurse who 'used a weapon each time she inserted a needle' in patients has been sentenced to another four years in prison on top of the remaining three years she is already serving in Ontario, a British Columbia Supreme Court judge
VANCOUVER — A fake nurse who"used a weapon each time she inserted a needle" in patients has been sentenced to another four years in prison on top of the remaining three years she is already serving in Ontario, a British Columbia Supreme Court judge has ruled.
While working at the clinic, Holmes said, Cleroux stole cheques, bilking the clinic of around $8,000, before she left the job in March 2020. The judge broke down how Cleroux used"numerous" fake documents to get the jobs in health-care facilities, providing false references and email addresses that were under her control.
Holmes said Cleroux began applying for other nursing jobs in early 2021 before leaving her hospital job in Vancouver, landing a position at an Ottawa fertility clinic in July 2021, but her"deception came to light" after confrontations with a colleague. Some of the victims Cleroux treated underwent some of the “most invasive of procedures” on the “most private area of their bodies," Holmes said.
