LUFKIN — A former dialysis nurse accused of capital murder has made what was likely her final court appearance before jury selection starts in three weeks. That’s according to KETK and the Lufkin Daily News. Kim Saenz’s attorney called a hearing before a state district judge because of an issue with a report he subpoenaed from the Texas Department of Health and Human Services. The 37-year-old Saenz is accused of injecting five patients with bleach during their dialysis treatments in Lufkin in spring 2008. If convicted, she could face the death penalty or life in prison.
