She's facing 25 years in prison. They were already separated. Really - was it worth it? Why wouldn't she just move on?
Renee Burke, 40, of Holbrook on Long Island, allegedly tried to kill her husband, Matthew Burke, at least three times by placing the chemical in multiple beverages to be consumed by her husband, Suffolk County District Attorney Timothy D. Sini announced in a press release Thursday, describing the case as "extremely troubling."
The couple did not live together, and Matthew Burke had full custody of their two children, while Renee Burke had visitation rights, ABC New York station WABC reported.
All three alleged attempts occurred in September, according to a criminal indictment filed in Suffolk County. On Sept. 6, Matthew Burke drank a glass of wine but discarded it when he noticed a "strange taste and smell," according to the prosecutor's office.
