Convicted Lufkin Nurse to Appeal Life Sentence

LUFKIN — Convicted serial killer Kimberly Saenz has returned to court to begin appealing her case. The 38-year-old was sentenced Monday to life in prison without parole for killing five DaVita Dialysis patients by bleach injection in April 2008. According to the Lufkin Daily News, she’s now attempting to overturn the ruling. Following the brief hearing, Saenz was taken back to the Angelina County Jail, where she will remain prior to prison transport. Saenz’s husband said Monday, their attorney would be appealing the conviction, and that the family planned to hold a press conference soon.
