Girls, I Would Think Twice Before Hanging Out At The Water Cooler!!!!!!!!!

                                        Darlings, I am telling you, a person just isn't safe anywhere.  Look what happened to poor Julie Williams, on last night's installment of "Nightmare Next Door.  Back in March of 1986, she was just a divorcee, trying to moving on with her life in Tempe, Arizona, working at the Transamerica Title Insurance Company.  So, like any worker bee, she took a short break at the water cooler.  It turned out, girls, to be the mistake of her life, because it cost her her life.
Several days after collapsing at work, Julie died from being poisoned.  The water cooler had been laced with cyanide.

                                             This story is not only sad for Julie and her surviving family, it speaks volumes of the stupidity of the perp.  That would be Lewis Harry Allen, Jr. a 32-year-old college athletics department clerk--who--get this--was trying to kill his wife, who worked at the same company with Julie!!!!!!!  He had attempted to poison said wife with liquor days before, but it did not take. So he spiked the water cooler with cyanide, thinking it would kill his wife!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                             Hey, Harry, how can you be so stupid? Didn't you stop to think that, being in a public place, the water might be consumed by others beside your wife?  Or didn't you care whom you took out?????  If you are targeting your wife, (not that I advocate killing, my dears) all right, then--go after HER, not innocent others who only share a work space with her.  This has to be one of the dumbest perps  ever on record!!!!!!!!!!  A no-win situation.  IF he succeeded in killing his wife, he would have been convicted; instead he does not succeed, kills someone completely innocent, leaving her family's lives in emotional tatters.     And gets convicted, anyway!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This guy is either stupid, or he is sick!!!!!!!!!!  Maybe both!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                                Fortunately, he is locked up--for life!!!!!!!!!  But this has put me off going to the water cooler at work!  Besides, my girls know I need something stronger--like coffee--to make it through the day!

                                                 Bring back Evian, darlings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I was working, after hours, at that office the night before this happened and consider myself very lucky to have escaped death. It was odd that the wife had an excessive number of photos of her Mister, and her lavish wedding all over her office and spoke often of this guy. Just goes to show that you never know what kind of crazy you are sitting next to.

    Maybe the wife was in
    denial or just trying to
    convince herself?

    I am so glad you escaped
    a fate that might well have
    happened. He obviously had
    no concern for anyone, least of
    all his wife!

    Thanks for your comments.
