SHOCKING! US woman attempts to poison husband for not appreciating for oraganising his 50th birthday

In a shocking incident, a US woman allegedly tried to poison her husband for not appreciating her efforts for organising his 50th birthday party.

47-year-old Michelle Peters of Missouri, had been charged with first-degree domestic assault and armed criminal action.

On May 1, Peters' husband noticed that one of the bottles of Mountain Dew in the refrigerator had an awkward taste. He initially ignored it but then started facing troubling symptoms like diarrhoea, throat soreness, brown/yellow mucus and vomiting.

He observed that the Mountain Dew had a normal taste when he drank it outside the house. The bottles in his garage fridge had the same odd taste. Suspecting that someone might be tampering the soda, he checked the camera surveillance system.

The CCTV footage showed his wife “taking a two-litre bottle of Diet Mountain Dew out of the garage refrigerator. She then took out a bottle of Roundup weed killer into the house,” before returning with them and putting them back in their respective places.

On June 24, Peters husband notified the Laclede County Sheriff’s Office about it and she was arrested.

During investigations, Peters told authorities that she was mad because she had thrown him a 50th birthday party and he was not appreciative. Peters said she believed the chemical in the basement was Roundup when she put it in the Mountain Dew and did so to be ‘mean’.

Peters also told authorities that she was mixing Roundup and Mountain Dew to use as weed killer, which she attributed to an idea she discovered on Pinterest.
