STILL SO WTF

Texas Ricin Suspect Cuts Plea Deal

Tried to mail poisoned letters to Obama, blame husband.

Does this mean we’ll be spared hearing all the insane reasons why anyone would mail a letter laced with ricin to President Obama and New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, and then try to blame her husband? Because that’s kind of a shame. Sharon Guess Richardson, the Texas actress who did exactly that, has reportedly entered a plea agreement with federal prosecutors, according the Texarkana Gazette. The U.S. Attorney’s Office has added a “notice of plea agreement” to the docket for Richardson, although no court date has been set. Her pretrial hearing for December 2 has been canceled. Richardson, who was pregnant at the time, allegedly sent letters this summer that were laced with a homemade concoction similar to ricin to Obama, Bloomberg, and Michael Glaze, the head of a gun-control group.
