A UK woman poured a concoction of scalding water and sugar on her sleeping husband, who later died — as part of a sick plot to “extract vengeance” following a dispute.
Corinna Smith, 59, was found guilty Tuesday of murdering her 81-year-old husband, Michael Baines, when she attacked him in their home in Neston, Cheshire, on July 14, 2020, according to the BBC.
Chester Crown Court heard how Smith mixed boiling water with three bags of sugar and doused her husband with the liquid — burning his arms and torso.
