Michael Baines, 80, was slain by Corinna Smith, 59, who doused him with hot water laced with sugar while he was asleep.
The incident reportedly occurred after Smith’s daughter informed her that Michael had sexually molested her and her brother when they were children. “Angry” and “fuming,”
Smith combined three bags of sugar in a garden pail with two kettles of boiling water. Then she proceeded to the bedroom below and covered the sleeping guy with the molten sugar.
The lady risked life in jail after being arrested for her activities. The sugar “made the liquid more viscous, thicker, and stickier,
So that it stays on the skin and causes greater damage, and that is exactly what it did,” according to the prosecution. Baines had 36% of his body burned.
