After practicing medicine for decades, he aroused suspicion in 1998, when it emerged that he was named the sole beneficiary in a deceased patient's will—a will that Shipman turned out to have forged.

Graupner was a prolific writer and revered in his time. Why did he fall into obscurity? More... Discuss
