She also received three 20-year terms for aggravated assault in the cases of five other patients who were deliberately injured at the facility in East Texas. Jurors spent about 45 minutes deliberating before returning with a decision on the punishment. "I was hoping for the death penalty but I'm all right," said Wanda Hollingsworth, whose mother was among Saenz's victims. Given a chance to address Saenz after the jury left the courtroom, Hollingsworth said she was "nothing more than a psychopathic serial killer." "You have disgraced your family and the medical field," said Hollingsworth, a nurse herself. I honestly say I hope you rot in hell. Marisa Fernandez, whose grandmother also was among the patients who died, said she was satisfied with the sentence. "It is my duty as a Christian to forgive you," she told Saenz. And I will. I just hope for your sake you can reach out and ask forgiveness for yourself. Saenz was fired in April 2008 after a rash of illnesses and deaths at the clinic in Lufkin, about 125 miles northeast of Houston. Her lawyers argued Saenz wrongly took the blame for the clinic's sloppy procedures; bleach is a commonly used disinfectant at the clinic. DaVita Inc. denies the accusations. Prosecutors failed to show Saenz would present a future danger for violence, one of the questions they must answer in deciding the death penalty, Taylor said. He reminded jurors she'd been free since her arrest and indictment and during trial. Saenz's lead attorney, Ryan Deaton, indicated in court he would file for a new trial and seek appeals. He declined comment afterward. "The victims in this case were patients that went in for medical treatment to try to prolong their lives and the only thing they did wrong was trust the defendant," Herrington said. Saenz sobbed quietly earlier Monday as a witness called by her lawyer talked about how devastating the case has been to Saenz's fifth-grade daughter, one of her two children.
