Welsh Nurse Found Guilty of Attempting to Kill His Girlfriend Struck Off Register
Last year 51-year-old Kelvin Bull-Death had stabbed his girlfriend Marion Powell16 times after she broke off the relationship.
A Nursing Midwifery Council (NMC) hearing in Cardiff Friday said that confidence in the profession would be undermined if he was allowed to remain on the register.
Gill Barker, chair of the fitness to practice panel, said: This was a most violent, premeditated and systematic attack that caused serious injury to the victim.
The 16 stab injuries caused permanent scarring, loss of sense of smell and taste and had a significant psychological impact. [His] Conviction amounts to a serious departure from the relevant standards.
Bull-Death, who was employed as a nurse at Withybush Hospital, in Haverfordwest, used a blow torch to break into Powells home in Pembroke Dock, just a few days after she ended their two-year relationship. Powell awoke, in the early hours of July 17, 2007, to see Bull-Death standing over her bed, shining a torch into her face, the panel heard.
The endoscopy unit nurse told the 52-year-old mother that he was going to kill her, before starting to stab her in the chest, back, shoulders and neck.
But when his knife snapped in her neck, she was able to flee downstairs, the Nursing Midwifery Council (NMC) was told.
