HOUSTON --The trial of an MD Anderson cancer doctor accused of poisoning her lover's coffee got off to an explosive start Monday morning. Prosecutors say Dr. Ana Maria Gonzalez-Angulo had a fatal attraction.
"Evidence will show she became totally obsessed with him and wanting him," said prosecutor Justin Keiter.
Bombshell revelations were made within the first few minutes of the trial. Prosecutors say Dr. George Blumenschein had a pregnant longtime live-in girlfriend, at the same time he started an affair with Dr. Gonzalez-Angulo. They told jurors that relationship soured, providing a motive for Gonzalez to lace her lover's coffee with ethylene glycol, commonly found in anti-freeze.
"She convinces him to try (a) special Colombian coffee that she has," said Keiter. "She insists he try it."
Blumenshein had left his girlfriend's home on January 27th to go have breakfast with Gonzalez. After drinking the coffee that morning, the couple engaged in oral sex, followed by a shot of vodka.
The defense says that's proof this was a consensual love affair from beginning to end.
"This description of fatal attraction is completely hyperbole or exaggerations," said defense attorney Andy Drumheller.
Hours after drinking the sweetened coffee, Blumenschein began to feel ill.

MD Anderson doctors testified about concerns with the cancer doctors' intimate relationship and where it might lead.
"I was worried that George was emotionally unavailable, and I was worried Anna would get hurt," said Meric-Bernstam.

“oral sex” Talk about it.
Saw her pic. Guilty. Hang her.
Sir, we await your verdict on the perp.
Looks kinda lesbianish, too.
As it turns out, not in case of the photo you posted either: Photo: Pat Sullivan, AP
Ben, I do not avoid women. No, not at all.
Women sense my power. I drink their coffee.
But I deny them my essence. And I make the coffee myself and never let anything out of my sight that I might consume or imbibe.
I maintain the sanctity of my precious bodily fluids, and so should you and every mother’s son.
Are you with me Joe Buck?
Man, having sex with someone you know you just poisoned (if the accusation is true), is some ice-cold shinola.
“I’m not going to be IGNORED!”
it's compartmentalizing... one has nothing to do with the other... :)
i can hear Glenn say it as Alex... she was scary!
Egad, it is absolutely hideous O_O
She’s only being charged with aggravated assault. It was premeditated, attempted murder. Women can complain about sexism all they want, but when it gets into a courtroom they have the deck stacked in their favor.

B-b-but she's the real victim!
A couple of weeks of therapy, a month of community service, and she'll be back on Match.com.
Ethanol is antidotal to ethylene glycol poisoning, the little bit she sweetened coffee with should have been offset by the vodka, unless it takes some multiple X more for it to work...
STAY THIRSTY MY FRIENDS!
