The healthcare worker who prompted the investigation of hundreds of deaths of elderly patients has been charged with 11 more murders.
Billy Chemirmir, 46, was already being held on a charge of murdering a woman in March 2018, but he is now facing 12 counts of murder as well as a handful of attempted murder charges.
Chemirmir worked as a home health care aide in a number of cities in north Texas.
All of the women were killed by being smothered with a pillow, according to Dallas ABC affiliate WFAA.
Chemirmir was indicted on six new murders in Dallas County this week, according to jail records.
