Police say that a woman poisoned her boyfriend with antifreeze after learning he planned to break up with her after receiving a large inheritance.
A North Dakota woman has been charged with murder after allegedly poisoning her boyfriend due to 'financial motives,' police say. Ina Thea Kenoyer, 47, was arrested by Minot police Monday. She is accused of using antifreeze to kill 51-year-old Steven Edward Riley Jr. after learning that he planned to break up with her after receiving a large inheritance. Riley reportedly became ill while meeting with a lawyer Sept. 3 to get the money.
Investigators said they found a glass cleaner bottle without a cap, as well as a beer bottle and mug, containing suspected antifreeze, in the couple’s residence,' KMOT-TV states. The media outlet says Kenoyer claimed her innocence during a court appearance Tuesday. Kenoyer is charged with murder as a class AA felony, the most severe homicide charge in North Dakota, and is being held at the Ward County Jail on a $1 million bond, according to online records.
