The Old Sleeping Pills in the Meatball Trick
http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/victoria/woman-confesses-trying-to-kill-husband-by-poisoning-his-meatballs-then-injecting-him-with-brake-fluid-and-weedkiller/news-story/a9ff11358a53d3ab0a0e52496351e56f
My favorite line in this article has to be “… she mixed a fatal cocktail of brake fluid and weed killer, and began to inject it into her husband as he lay asleep. Court documents allege after just 2ml of the fluid was injected Mr Debono woke up and asked his wife what she was doing.”
Hey Honey….what’s that green smoking stuff you are injecting into me?
Gotta give Mrs. DeBono an A for creativity, but overall a C+ for the execution. I guess she didn’t factor in her husband’s superhuman capacity to resist sleeping pills and his natural curiosity at being woken up with his wife standing over him injecting a weird liquid into him – like you do.
How many meatballs does it take to hide the flavor of 75 sleeping pills? I mean – how much does this guy like meatballs?
