Discussion: Woman Faces Sentencing For Ricin-Laced Letters To Obama

Discussion for article #225121

Sentence capped at 18 years. Doesn’t seem quite long enough for attempted assassination.

This wasn’t a assignation attempt, this was a woman upset with her personal life and relation to her husband that is in need of counseling maybe mental help.

did I see a hint of crazy eyes???

Ingestion/exposure of an amount of ricin equal to 1/200th of an aspirin tablet would have killed the POTUS or Mr. Bloomberg. Seems like a pretty light sentence to me (and yes, she may be in need of counseling, but she clearly was sane when she did this premeditated act).

Don’t look for sympathy from me

assignation: an appointment to meet someone in secret, typically one made by lovers

I’d have to agree with you. No assignation attempts here…
