The man found guilty of the 2013 murder of two aged care residents from SummitCare in Wallsend is set to appeal his conviction.
Garry Steven Davis was sentenced to a maximum of 40 years behind bars, with a non-parole period of 30 years, after being found guilty of killing Gwen Fowler and Ryan Kelly, and the attempted murder of Audrey Manuel.
He is said to have injected the three residents with insulin over a two-day period.
Davis' legal team has labelled the conviction "unreasonable and not supported by the evidence," and will claim Supreme Court Justice Robert Hulme based his decision on coincidence.
The appeal date has not been set.
