Connor Bowman, 30, was charged by a grand jury for first-degree premeditated murder on Thursday. In Minnesota, first-degree murder can only be charged by a grand jury. The Olmsted County Attorney’s Office said in a news release that if he is convicted of first-degree murder, Connor Bowman “shall be sentenced to life in prison without possibility of release.”
Bowman is also facing a second-degree murder with intent-not premeditated charge in Olmsted County in connection with the death of his wife, Betty Bowman. Connor Bowman is accused of using colchicine, a drug used to treat gout, to poison her last August.

It absolutely disgusts me that his defense team motioned to dismiss the first degree murder charge. I get that, as the defense team, it’s their job to fight for lesser charges. But in this case, I mean come on, it doesn’t get much more premeditated than this. Connor deserves zero mercy for the painful death he put her through.For those trying to learn more about this case:

Agreed. I hate poisoners. I also hate bombers. Which I hate more depends on what I've been reading about or watching lately. Both poisoning and bombing require meticulous planning and premeditation and deep sadism, and a casual attitude to who or how many people get hurt. The amount of kids who take a bite or a sip of the victim's food or drink and get poisoned themselves is not zero.
