"Doctor gets 10 years prison for poisoning lover's coffee" by Alex Norton 4th Period

 A Texas cancer doctor was sentenced Monday to 10 years in prison after spiking her lover's coffee with a chemical found in antifreeze. Gonzalez-Angulo is a world-renowned breast cancer doctor who worked with Blumenschein at the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center.
The sweet-tasting poison in Blumenschein's black coffee damaged his kidneys. The oncologist testified last week in Harris County District Court that he has only 40% of his kidney function and had to undergo emergency dialysis to survive.
The poisoning likely will shorten his life, he said. Or it could require the need for a kidney transplant in the future.

This is bizarre! I wonder what her motives were and if she intended such serious damage. Considering she is a doctor and probably knows a thing or two about poison, this is alarming.

  2. Her intentions were obviously meant as a cover up of some sort.

  3. This is very strange. Maybe she suspected that her lover was cheating on her causing her to want to possible kill him.

  4. How can you relate this to APUSH? Think about AP PARTS. This is a summary with very little analysis.
