Christopher Laurie Turner

Christopher Laurie Turner is a former gas fitter who pleaded guilty to manslaughter and grievous bodily harm in connection with the tragic death of newborn John Ghanem at Bankstown-Lidcombe Hospital. In 2016, a mix-up in medical gas connections resulted in John being administered nitrous oxide instead of oxygen, leading to his untimely death. Turner initially contested the charges but changed his plea in court, where he faces a potential maximum sentence of 25 years in prison.
