Disturbed patients, a bullied former student and a whistleblowing nurse all share their experiences — and talk about the pain Cleroux caused them.Every person who’s crossed paths with Cleroux has a very different story to tell, but they’ve all been left with the same question: Why does she keep doing this?Reported by Bethany Lindsay and produced by Joan Webber / Originally aired on The Current Storylines is part of the CBC Audio Doc Unit
