Summary: | HERE'S A QUICK LOOK AT POISONING cases that took place globally in 1996.
The United States
In Colorado, five men, who were enjoying themselves drinking beer and listening to music inside a cat at
their garage with the engine on, died of poisoning of carbon monoxide fumes.
Two American teachers nearly became victims of poisoning by their students. In one case, a 12yearold
girl poured rat poison in her teacher's soda and was subsequently sentenced to five years detention. In
another case, a teenager was charged with spiking his teacher's drink with the drug LSD. Both teachers
suffered no harm.
In Fort Lauderdale, a mother will be charged for having deliberately poisoned her nineyearold
daughter
by injecting faecal bacteria into her blood. |
