Debt Drives Wife To ‘Use Ant-Freeze To Poison Husband’
DEBT: “A man was left deaf, blind and brain-damaged after his young wife spiked his drinks with antifreeze because she had run up debts and wanted to claim against his £50,000 life assurance policy, a court was told yesterday.
“Kate Knight, 28, set out to murder her husband, Lee, 37, after taking out bank loans and remortgaging the family home, Stafford Crown Court was told. She considered giving him an overdose of Ecstasy or iron tablets before settling on antifreeze, which contains the poisonous chemical ethylene glycol, it is alleged.”
Knight denies attempted murder. The trial continues.

Unbelievable. A true idiot, a pathetic lost soul, I would question her IQ.

The name seems to be indicative of some trait or other too…

Er, if I were considering poisoning someone I don’t think I’d discuss it with a neighbour.
And yet Kate apparently did.
Cue one of those corny remarks about the truth being stranger than fiction…
