Irvine woman arrested for poisoning husband's food
CBS News ^ | 8/5/2022 | Staff

An Irvine woman was behind bars Friday after she was arrested for continuously poisoning her husband, causing him to contract a month-long illness.

According to Irvine Police Department, Yu's husband had fallen ill over the course of a month, and had grown suspicious that the illness came at the hand of his wife, who he believed was poisoning him.

He successfully captured video evidence and turned it in to police, who subsequently took Yu into custody at the couple's home and booked her at Orange County Jail.

The man sustained "significant internal injuries" as a result, but is expected to recover.

I’m going to posit that she was/is married to a white guy.

Yue Yu, 45, was arrested Thursday for poisoning her husband of 10 year's food.

So many ways to read that sentence.

Her husband was ten years old when she started poisoning his food.

Or she was poisoning his food for ten years.

Or they had been married for ten years when she started poisoning his food.

Or possibly that she began poisoning her husband when the food was ten years old.

This is not blog. It is a professional news organization.

Is it too much to ask that professional news stories be written by people who graduated high school?

“ An old battleax of a woman said to Winston Churchill, “If you were my husband I would put poison in your tea.” Churchill’s response, “Ma’am if you were my wife I would drink it”
-Churchill (though there is no actual proof that he said that as far as I know)

“If you were my husband, I’d poison your tea!”; “and if you were my wife, I’d drink it!”

He needed irrefutable ecidence for the cops to do anything for him.

Nice of you to rip on him when he’s the victim of a crime meant to murder him off.

That is what my friend in Irvine looked up. Practices in Mission Viejo.

Mr Churchill was a very smart man and may have said that statement. I just feel bad for the Brits. Churchill and Thatcher are their best. We on the other hand have only had Reagan and Trump. We seem to be screwed together.
