Couple accused of poisoning restaurant customers

By Mark Fisher | Monday, November 9, 2009, 11:57 AM

Two former employees of a Mexican restaurant in Lenexa, Kansas have been charged with intentionally poisoning as many as 48 diners in two separate incidents, according to this story from Nation’s Restaurant News and this KansasCity.com story.

The stories suggest that a disgruntled 30-year-old ex-employee was trying to get revenge against the restaurant’s owner, whom he blamed for the loss of his job. The man’s 19-year-old wife, also an ex-employee, was also charged. They are accused of mixing a pesticide into the restaurant’s salsa, sickening 12 customers on Aug. 11 and 36 more customers in a subsequent incident on Aug. 30.

We’ve had incidents of mass food-poisonings in this part of Ohio, but none that were caused intentionally, to my recollection. Nasty.
