A Connecticut mom has been charged with two counts of murder for allegedly poisoning her estranged husband’s wine bottle in the midst of a bitter custody battle with a chemical commonly found in antifreeze.
Kristen Hogan, 33, was arrested Friday, after police say she admitted to putting ethylene glycol in her former partner’s wine and a bottle of iced tea. She told officers she sought to make the man sick as “payback for being mentally abusive,” according to documents released by the Connecticut State Police. She denied trying to kill him.
