McConnellsburg. In February 2013, a local woman was sentenced to prison, convicted of poisoning her boyfriend over three years by putting Visine eyedrops in his drinking water. Though this caused “nausea and vomiting, blood pressure fluctuation and breathing difficulties,” court documents said the poisoner “never meant to kill him, only wanted him to pay more attention to her.” See Mikkelson, Barbara.
