A Miami nurse is facing a charge of aggravated manslaughter following a disturbing incident in which she allegedly removed her own mother’s life-sustaining intubation tube without medical authorization. Juansette Sabrina Green, 54, was arrested after her actions reportedly led to the death of her elderly mother at a local hospital.
According to law enforcement and jail records, Green was not authorized to make medical decisions for the patient and had been warned multiple times by hospital staff not to interfere with medical procedures. Despite these warnings, she is accused of removing the breathing tube, which had been critical to her mother’s survival.
Hospital staff made efforts to resuscitate the woman, but she died shortly after the tube was removed. Authorities later arrested Green on charges related to the unauthorized medical intervention, which they allege directly contributed to her mother’s death.
The case has sent shockwaves through the Miami medical community, raising questions about patient safety protocols and family involvement in critical care decisions. Green remains in custody as the legal process moves forward.
