A woman has been charged in the murder of her boyfriend last month, after being accused of secretly spiking the deceased's drinks with antifreeze.
Judy Church, 64, stands accused of killing 55-year-old Leroy Fowler by dishing him the fatal dose of ethylene glycol in a coffee-flavored shake he ingested on the night of November 11, cops say.
A retired Massachusetts schoolteacher, Church appeared briefly in court on Friday wearing a Boston College hoodie, one day after she was arrested. The appearance saw her denied bail and ordered back in court for next month.
The charge comes as police in the small beach town aired beliefs that Fowler was poisoned with ethylene glycol, an industrial compound commonly found in in the engine coolant. Antifreeze is often used in poisonings due to the fact it can be unknowingly ingested because of its syrupy texture and sweet flavor.
Unidentified containers that resemble the deadly substance were seen on surveillance footage around Church's apartment where she lived with Fowler.
Fowler died two days after exhibiting symptoms he had been poisoned, during which time he was transferred to three different hospitals in the Northeastern part of the state for care.

Her motives? >>>> Jealousy. He had another girlfriend he was seeing. He was two timing the retired edumacator.
I thot we made anti freeze too sour to drink? That must have been some rankaxx cofeve to be drinkable? Too lazy to make his own coffee? Maybe there isn’t much loss here?
She looks like the boil-pet-bunny-on-the-kitchen-stove type. Minus the attractive looks.
Lots of smart MDs.
They would pick up an elevated osmolal gap and metabolic acidosis with an elevated anion gap in their sleep. To wit, ethylene glycol poisoning.
She should have done it down Providence.
They would have called it 'stomach flu'.
“I thot we made anti freeze too sour to drink? That must have been some rankaxx cofeve to be drinkable? “
Proof that most people like to be jerked by headlines.
Cops also said that Hawkins divulged to them that Fowler was known to 'go back and forth' between Church and a second girlfriend
A husband I get, but a boyfriend?
I would “want” that, but only if I was allowed to 1) Drink a fifth of Jack, a half bottle of Everclear, smoke a giant skunk and black hash-filled spliff, take a big whack on a crack pipe, drop 15 Xanax and huff a full tube of Testor’s Model Airplane Cement immediately before going there. 2) Wear a bag over my head, put a bag over her head and one over the dog’s head (so it wouldn’t tell anyone I’d been there.) Then it would be cool.
I thought sugar based antifreeze had been reformulated so it was no longer undetectable.
Man you gotta lotta lust for her don’t you? /s
But
Damn, if get it straight after all that you’re a walking woody. 🤪
Fowler’s son, also named Leroy, later told detectives that Church had taken a life-insurance policy out in his father’s name about a year ago.

There’s a big fat motive.
She was dumb to poison him. Should've poisoned the other girlfriend.
Laz is laughing at this.
Sugar (or, better said, sugars) is the element that prevents water from freezing: to put it simply, a higher content of sugar prevents freezing. If we try and put in a freezer a thick syrup with a high sugar concentration we notice it remains liquid even at temperatures below zero, because ice crystals cannot form.Jan 11, 2019
