How? How would he know he was poisoned and have time to tell his family before he died? How did he contact his family? Did the family get the body back?

There was a 911 call in San Diego where the wife of an auto shop owner realized that her husband had poisoned her. On the call, she was heard to say, "What did you put in my drink you bastard?". It was cyanide. She was dead before help could arrive. Hubby was convicted of murder. He's on death row.

Actually, my point was... he was at Saddam's palace according to this story. If he drank a poisoned drink, how would he have had time to leave and go to his family and tell them. I doubt he would have been allowed to phone home or call 911 from Saddam's palace 8-) If he had time to get to his family, why didn't he head for a hospital instead. It's puzzling why there's so much missing from this story if it's true.
