Medical drama Five Days at Memorial for Apple TV+ is based on the actual discovery of 45 deaths following Hurricane Katrina and subsequent flooding at a building housing Memorial Medical Center and LifeCare Hospitals in New Orleans. dr Anna Pou and nurses Lori Budo and Cheri Landry have actually been arrested in connection with four deaths after lethal doses of drugs were found in several bodies recovered from the Memorial Hospital facility. Viewers must be curious to know more about the two nurses and their current whereabouts as they were allegedly involved in the deaths. Then let’s discuss what we know!
Ex-Memorial nurses Cheri Landry and Lori Budo
Who are Lori Budo and Cheri Landry?
At the time of Hurricane Katrina and the subsequent flood, Memorial Medical Center’s surgical intensive care unit employed Lori Budo and Cheri Landry as registered nurses. Autopsies were performed immediately after the bodies were found, and morphine was found in nine of the bodies. Budo, Landry and Dr. Anna Pou were arrested in July 2006 and charged with quadruple second-degree murder for allegedly administering lethal amounts of morphine and another substance to four LifeCare patients. According to the show’s sourcebook of the same name by Sheri Fink, investigators thought Budo and Landry were Pou’s henchmen.
When Budo was arrested while at home with her husband and two teenage children, Landry was arrested while she was working at a nearby hospital. Nurses who had worked with Budo and Landry set up a support fund to help them financially. In addition to additional cash donations, Budo and Landry received monthly allowances for bills, food, and clothing. Lawsuits have since been filed against the two nurses by the families of three of the four patients who died. Eventually, in exchange for having their case dismissed, Budo and Landry received a subpoena to testify before the grand jury without representation.
The Louisiana Supreme Court dismissed Budo and Landry’s appeal of their subpoenas, forcing them to testify before the special jury in exchange for immunity from prosecution. Without knowing the health status of the LifeCare patients, Landry allegedly testified that she “had injections to up to four of the LifeCare patients on the seventh floor and two patients on the second floor.” She went on to say that she thought they were all going to “die” and that she imagined they were all under the “do not revive” order.
According to the show’s source, Budo testified that she was “unaware of the seventh floor patients’ medical issues or their DNR status, but they appeared to be dying.” She said, “I had injected two of them with morphine and midazolam.”
Where are Lori Budo and Cheri Landry now?
Lori Budo and Cheri Landry continued to work as nurses after receiving immunity. According to Sheri Fink’s source code, Budo and Landry eventually began working as nurses at the hospital when Memorial Medical Center resumed operations as the Ochsner Baptist Medical Center under the new management of Ochsner Health System. When Fink went to the hospital in 2012, she recalled seeing the happy faces of Budo and Landry on the human resources bulletin board.
A dramatized story of Memorial’s ICU staff and their families, based on their experiences after Hurricane Katrina, was published by Budo in 2010 entitled Katrina Through Our Eyes: Stories from Inside Baptist Hospital. Except for her, practically all the names of the employees in the novel are fictitious. Since then, Budo has made the decision to avoid the limelight. Fink tried several times to interview Budo while writing the show’s original lyrics, but the actor declined through her attorney. Landry and Budo have both made decisions to keep their private lives private.
