A NSW aged care worker who predicted the deaths of three elderly dementia patients in text messages to a colleague has been found guilty of their murder and attempted murder. Mrs Fowler and Mr Kelly died and Ms Manuel survived but died of other causes a while later. Davis pleaded not guilty to murder and attempted murder, but today Supreme Court Justice Robert Allan Hulme found him guilty on all counts. Adding strength to this idea was a doctor's evidence that Ms Fowler, Davis' first victim, was "too far demented to really question or raise any alarm", he said. SummitCare chief executive Cynthia Payne said the company's thoughts were with the families of Mrs Fowler, Mr Kelly and Mrs Manuel and that it had offered support to its residents and employees.
