Texas Woman Doctor On Trial For Attempted Murder of Colleague



[From article]
A doctor could spent the rest of her life in prison if found guilty of poisoning the co-worker with whom she was having an affair.
The trial for breast cancer doctor Ana Maria Gonzalez-Angulo began today in Houston, Texas. The 43-year-old stands accused of spiking her ex-lover Dr George Blumenschein's coffee with antifreeze.
The two met working at the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center and started a casual sexual relationship in 2011, while Blumenschein was living with his long-term girlfriend, Evette Toney.
In their opening statements on Monday, prosecutors argued that Gonzalez-Angulo had a 'fatal attraction' to Blumenschein, and poisoned him when she found out that his girlfriend had suffered a miscarriage.
