Worker cleared of ward sabotage

Worker cleared of ward sabotage

A former maintenance worker at Guy's was cleared yesterday of sabotaging life support systems at the London hospital.

Anthony McGrory, 34, from Croydon in south London, had denied switching off machinery controlling the supply of heat, air and water to wards including the paediatric unit after a Christmas party in 1994.

The Old Bailey was told that McGrory, a father of three, had acted out of revenge after being made redundant eight months earlier.
