The guy was ejected from the hospital for being suspected of eating a toddler, disappeared for a few years, then eventually spewed bloody pus shit everywhere and died.

The bloody diarrhea was most likely from his strange diet of discarded organ meat, corks, and the blood of patients in hospital with him.
