Interesting case and test of “Reasonable Doubt” standard. Not-guilty will be a surprise. If you look up information about poisons on line, and then that type of poison is found in the victim’s stomach… that’s a strike against you, regardless of whether or not the prosecutor’s expert overstated the amount of poison present. The victim’s letter expressing fear that her husband was trying to kill her doesn’t help either.
