She would then respond to the coded emergency, often resuscitating the patients herself. Gilbert's known victims are Stanley Jagodowski, age 65, Henry Hudon, 35, Kenneth Cutting, 41, and Edward Skwira, 69. == Early life and education == Gilbert was born on November 13, 1967, in Fall River, Massachusetts. She was the elder of Richard and Claudia Strickland's two daughters. Richard Strickland was an electronics executive; Claudia was a homemaker and part-time teacher.〔 As Gilbert entered her teenage years, friends and family noticed that she was a habitual liar. She had a history of faking suicide attempts to manipulate people.〔 Gilbert has made violent threats against others since she was a teenager, according to court records. She graduated from Groton-Dunstable Regional High School in Groton, Massachusetts.〔 In 1986, she enrolled at Bridgewater State College in Bridgewater, Massachusetts. Bridgewater State College officials ordered Gilbert to receive psychiatric treatment after she made a fake suicide attempt.〔 Because of this, in 1987, she transferred to Mount Wachusett Community College in Gardner, Massachusetts and then to Greenfield Community College in Greenfield, Massachusetts.〔〔 She graduated from Greenfield Community College with a nursing diploma and became a registered nurse in 1988. Later that year, she married Glenn Gilbert. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kristen Gilbert」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
