BONNE TERRE - A Bonne Terre woman is in jail after allegedly poisoning the wife of the man she wanted to be with. Tina Vazquez, 33, Bonne Terre, is accused of poisoning Angie Hausler with sodium nitrite, a meat-curing chemical that is used at Vazquez's place of employment.
Investigators said the poisoning took place Saturday morning.
“Tina Vazquez allegedly gave Ms. Hausler two capsules which she believed to be the antibiotic amoxicillin,” said St. Francois County Sheriff Dan Bullock . “The pills contained sodium nitrite. Shortly after taking the pills, Ms. Hausler collapsed and was taken to a local hospital. She was later transferred to St. John's Mercy Center in St. Louis.
Invesigators said the hospital determined that Ms. Hausler was given a toxic substance. “The hospital couldn't identify what the toxic substance was,” said Lt. Greg Armstrong of the St. Francois County Sheriff's Department. “The hospital questioned both Mr. and Mrs. Hausler to try to determine what the substance was. Mrs. Hausler said she had taken an amoxicillin pill that a friend had given her on Saturday morning. The hospital asked if she had anymore of the pills. She said yes there is still one more at home.”
Armstrong said Mr. Hausler was sent home to retrieve the second pill. When the pill was tested, it was not amoxicllin.
“Mr. Hausler then contacted the suspect and questioned her about the pills,” Armstrong said. “The suspect told him (Hausler) that he didn't want to know what was in the pills. He said yes I do and she went on to tell him that it was sodium nitrite.”
Bullock said Mr. Hausler contacted the St. Francois County Sheriff's Department late Sunday evening to report what had taken place. “We have interviewed Mr. Hausler and have arrested Ms. Vazquez,” Bullock said. “She has been charged with assault in the first degree and is in jail on a $60,000 bond.”
Bullock said sodium nitrite is used in curing meats, but it is diluted.
“Ms. Hausler was given pure sodium nitrite which can be fatal,” Bullock said. “She has been administered the antidote and is in stable condition.”
Yes, exactly !
I have always heard that Southern women are the prettiest around :) (or at least that is what my mid-western husband tells me)!
But then again, we always have these "lovely" women messing that up for us, don't we, haha?!
LOL!
Her photo reminds me of the line;
"If you were my husband I would give you poison"
and the reply;
"Madam, if you were my wife I would accept it."
A mug like that will get you an additional 10 years
LOL!
Oh, MUCH better.

Nothing modern about that broad and she sure isn't any Southern belle.
Just one of many comments that make me love Free Republic.LOL
Thank you, swmobuffalo! This article is from a Missouri paper. There is no proof at all this woman is a Southerner. Anybody can wear a t-shirt. Hey, I wear a Viva La Raza t-shirt, but I'm not Hispanic! I bet she's a bona fide yankee in disguise.
There was a picture of the wife in another thread about the incident.
The wife is very attractive and from the picture the couple looked very happy.
I really don't think this was a love triangle from the husband's point of view.
D
Maybe, but I envision Bertha as being much larger and more beefy.
