I am leaning towards the cook being guilty.
I think she originally planned to kill her ex and his family. I know people say she had no motive--but I think that is something we might not understand, unless we had gone through a divorce.
There is an often a lot of anger, resentment and toxic energy brewing during a divorce. Especially with children involved. Maybe she wanted to be rid of her ex and his family and to start a new life with the kids, with no interference?
Then her ex cancelled and for some odd reason she went ahead with it?
That part puzzles me. But I don't see any other credible explanations for those poisonous mushrooms being in the meals that she cooked.
She fed the mushrooms to her ex-in-laws , but not to her kids or herself? I think that makes it less likely that she was 'set up' by someone. JMO
also I've mentioned this before but there is possible financial motive, if her kids inherit from their grandparents and then the kids inexplicably die - or they live but that's less money she has to spend on them if they have their own college fund etc.
