Life Convicted Anti-Freeze Killer Lynn Turner Dies in Prison

**mlyonsd** · 08-30-2010, 12:31 PM

ATLANTA -- Lynn Turner, who was convicted in 2007 of killing her husband and boyfriend with antifreeze, has died in prison.

Officials said Turner, 42, died in Metro State Prison in Atlanta on Monday.

A release from corrections officials said Turner was found in her cell at 6:55 a.m. Monday and that prison medical staff and EMS crews were unable to revive her.

The cause of death is under investigation by the GBI Medical Examiner's office.

The trial found that Turner murdered her husband, Cobb County police officer Maurice Turner in 1995, and in 2001, killed her boyfriend, Forsyth County firefighter Randy Thompson -- both by poisoning with antifreeze.

She was serving a life sentence for Thompson's murder.

I wonder how hard it is was to smuggle in antifreeze just for her.

If karma works the way it's supposed to, she froze to death. Twice.

How does one kill another with anti-freeze without them knowing it? Is it used an iced tea sweetener?

On an episode of "Glades" last night it was "suggested" it could be mixed n with a sports drink/Mountain Dew with little or no noticeable trace. But hey, how would I know, I tried warfarin on the ex

I find the methods people use to kill a family member or associate interesting. Those that live with a spouse or S.O. need to know the signs of poisoning. This story is pretty damn sad.

Wife guilty of trying to kill husband with anti-freeze curry

Article history

A woman was found guilty today of attempting to murder her husband by putting anti-freeze in his curry.

Kate Knight's husband, Lee, fell into a coma for 16 weeks and was left blind and deaf after she poisoned his food and wine on their 7th wedding anniversary in April 2005. He also suffered brain and liver damage.

A Stafford crown court jury took eight hours to convict the 28-year-old from Meir Hay, Stoke-on-Trent, after a three-week trial.

The court had heard Knight stood to receive £250,000 on her husband's death and was hoping to clear mounting debts.

Lee Knight told the court he knew nothing of loans, taken out by his wife in 2003 and 2004, which motivated her desire to kill him and claim a windfall from his employer.
She had confided in her neighbour, Sarah Johnson, who initially dismissed her talk as attention seeking. But when Johnson found out Lee Knight had been in intensive care for three weeks she went to the police.

Knight denied murder. She claimed her marriage was an unhappy and violent one.
The court heard how she had hoped her husband's death would be blamed on his heavy drinking.

She used the internet to find a method of killing, settling on anti-freeze after considering using ecstasy or iron tablets.
Judge Simon Tonking told Knight: "I will be imposing a very considerable term of imprisonment."
In a statement read outside court by a Staffordshire police spokesman, Lee Knight said he had "hardly any independence" anymore and had lost "everything I worked for".

He also expressed his concern about the impact on their son.
"Kate has ruined my life and what she has done will have a big effect on [our son's] future," he said.

DC Martin Smith described it as a "cowardly crime" which had "tragically affected" Lee Knight.
