North Carolina Nursing Home Resident Murderer Does Not Remember Rampage
We discussed Robert Stewart and his murderous nursing home rampage of March 29, 2009, in our previous blog.
According to recently released information, Stewart told a hospital nurse that he "does not remember anything" about his rampage through the nursing home where he killed eight innocent people. Search warrants and court documents say that investigators found ammunition on the kitchen table and a bed in Stewart's home, eight more guns, and an array of scopes and gun barrels. They also found pill bottles and several pieces of notebook paper with writing but have not released details of the writings.
At the hospital where he was taken after sustaining a wound in a shootout with police, he told a nurse that he had taken six "nerve pills" and did not remember anything else. Warrants allowed investigators to draw Stewart's blood "to determine if there is any controlled substance in his body".
Currently, Stewart remains in North Carolina's Central Prison, a maximum security facility for murdering seven elderly nursing home residents and one nurse.
