Suncha Tinevra allegedly spiked her husband’s coffee two or three times with ant and roach killer

A 70-year-old woman is accused of lacing her husband’s coffee with ant and roach killer multiple times, causing him to become sick.

Suncha Tinevra was caught on home surveillance video Jan. 12 retrieving a bottle from beneath a sink and squeezing its white powdery contents into her husband’s coffee, Queens County District Attorney Melinda Katz said Saturday.

“The victim did become sick, but thankfully did not die,” Katz said in a news release.

Tinevra allegedly spiked the husband’s coffee two or three times. She was arraigned Friday on charges of attempted assault, reckless endangerment and weapons possession, the prosecutor said. A not guilty plea was entered on her behalf.

Detectives recovered the red-capped bottle from the home Jan. 14. The label indicated it contained boric acid and is used to kill insects, authorities said.

Tinevra is due back in court March 10. It was unclear Saturday whether she has an attorney able to speak on her behalf.

If convicted, she could face up to four years in prison.

4 years for attempted murder.

She’ll be out inside a week with that kind of a punishment.

Toxicology:

Based on mammalian median lethal dose (LD50) rating of 2,660 mg/kg body mass, boric acid is only poisonous if taken internally or inhaled in large quantities. The Fourteenth Edition of the Merck Index indicates that the LD50 of boric acid is 5.14 g/kg for oral dosages given to rats, and that 5 to 20 g/kg has produced death in adult humans. For comparison’s sake, the LD50 of salt is reported to be 3.75 g/kg in rats according to the Merck Index. According to the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry, “The minimal lethal dose of ingested boron (as boric acid) was reported to be 2–3 g in infants, 5–6 g in children, and 15–20 g in adults. [...] However, a review of 784 human poisonings with boric acid (10–88 g) reported no fatalities, with 88% of cases being asymptomatic.”[15]

Long-term exposure to boric acid may be of more concern, causing kidney damage and eventually kidney failure (see links below). Although it does not appear to be carcinogenic, studies in dogs have reported testicular atrophy after exposure to 32 mg/kg bw/day for 90 days. This level is far lower than the LD50.[16]

According to the CLH report for boric acid published by the Bureau for Chemical Substances Lodz, Poland, boric acid in high doses shows significant developmental toxicity and teratogenicity in rabbit, rat, and mouse fetuses as well as cardiovascular defects, skeletal variations, and mild kidney lesions.[17] As a consequence in the 30th ATP to EU directive 67/548/EEC of August 2008, the European Commission decided to amend its classification as reprotoxic category 2, and to apply the risk phrases R60 (may impair fertility) and R61 (may cause harm to the unborn child).[18][19][20][21][22]

At a 2010 European Diagnostics Manufacturing Association (EDMA) Meeting, several new additions to the Substance of Very High Concern (SVHC) candidate list in relation to the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals Regulations 2007 (REACH) were discussed. Following the registration and review completed as part of REACH, the classification of Boric Acid CAS 10043-35-3 / 11113-50-1 is listed from 1 December 2010 is H360FD (May damage fertility. May damage the unborn child.)[23][24]

That blond isn’t the poisoner, she’s the motive.

Boric acid isn’t very toxic. My mom used to use it for eyewash. She should just claim she was giving it to him medicinally.
