Woman in court charged with attempted murder with herbicide

The prosecution believes that the accused on several occasions from June 2019 to 28 May 2020 tried to kill his then spouse by enticing him to “eat and / or drink plant poison”, writes Adresseavisen.

This must have happened in their home in Trondheim and in another municipality. According to the indictment, the man was hospitalized a total of eleven times in hospital during the period. Twice he was sent to hospital with cardiac arrest.

Prosecutor Eli Reberg Nessimo says that the toxin aconitin was detected in a blood sample from victims. Aconitine has also been detected on objects in their homes. Akonitin is according to Store norske leksikon a substance found in the plant bull helmet.

In addition to attempted murder, the woman is charged with fraud after she, according to the indictment, has taken out eight loans in her husband’s name. In total, it will be about 1.2 million kroner from October 2016 to March 2019.

Defendant’s defense attorney, John Berg, said in November last year NRK that he did not know how his client would respond to the fraud charge.
