The Brazilian woman charged with poisoning three of her relatives with an arsenic-laced Christmas cake has been found dead in her prison cell — a day after her husband asked for a divorce. Deise Moura dos Anjos, 42, has been locked up in pre-trial detention on murder charges since January after prosecutors accused her of killing three relatives — and attempting to kill three more — with a tainted cake she served them on Christmas Eve. She was discovered in her cell in the southern Brazilian city of Guaíba, in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, CNN Brasil reported.
“Immediately, the staff provided first aid” and called for help, but she could not be saved, police said of the suspected suicide. Dos Anjos’ husband, Diego, had asked for a divorce the day before her death, according to the outlet.
Tatiana Denize Silva dos Anjos, 43, Maida Berenice Flores da Silva, 58, and Neuza Denize Silva dos Anjos, 65, each died after eating Bolo de Natal — a Brazilian Christmas cake — during a holiday celebration in Torres in southern Brazil.

She seems nice. And serves cake! How bad can she be?
Gustave Flaubert goes into great detail describing Madam Bovary's suicide by arsenic. Yikes!
Justice well served.
She got off easy imo.
And she wouldn’t be able to do it to anyone else either.
Found in her cell clutching a copy of Filthy Rich : The Jeffrey Epstein Story by James Patterson.
Wonder if he boasted in a bar the night before about being rid of her, which his lawyer would say meant within the system of jurisprudence.
Although some have discredited the story, Lyndon B. Johnson had been so angry and humiliated by the insider rich Ivy League Kennedy associates and relatives, who isolated him and treated him as an ignorant country bumpkin, Johnson was said to have looked into the distance, smiled and said to one associate: "By tomorrow afternoon all my troubles will be over." November 21, 1963.
However, he oddly had sketched out plans for what to later move out of all the Kennedy items including his famous rocking chair, which were quickly found in the hallways within a short time after the death.
This was no boating accident . . . it was a shark.
I worked with a man who had mental issues...he gave up attempting to cope with things and drank bleach. Enough to kill himself...but not before he puked all over his apartment.
He was a really nice, personable guy when he wasn’t having problems. Must have been horrible.
Wow. The cake didn’t have a file in it.
It is a nasty metal.
