    I don’t want to be brutal or anything but this is a really horrible way to murder 4 people, and the only fitting punishment is to execute her by mushroom poisoning. Notice the timeline it took the survivor 7 weeks to recover, and those who died it was over a week of hospitalized pain and organ failure.

    Also her estranged husband is kind of complicit? He suspected attempted poisoning twice before and declined the lunch? But you don’t warn your parents? That might be hard to live with.

      I disagree, but only because I strongly believe that anyone commonly considered deserving of the death penalty shouldn’t get such an easy way out; give them a nice, long life sentence. In her case, feed her just enough mycotoxin to keep her perpetually sick but not kill her. Sometimes cruel and unusual is warranted.
