A Russian woman living in New York has been convicted of attempted murder and other charges after trying to kill a lookalike with poisoned cheesecake to steal her identity, prosecutors announced.

Homeland Security investigators found Nasyrova's DNA all over the cheesecake box – and determined the slice had been laced with the Soviet-era sedative drug, Phenazepam – the same drug found in the pills scattered around Tsvyk's room, according to authorities.

Nasyrova pleaded guilty in a separate case to attempted petit larceny in Brooklyn Supreme Court in 2019, following allegations she drugged and robbed men she met on dating apps. She is also accused of drugging and killing her neighbor in Russia, torching the body and fleeing to New York.

Best punishment in my opinion would be to send her back to Russia, let them deal with her... they'll probably send her to the front lines 🤣

Students stranded after hotel accidentally shreds 42 passports

https://www.yahoo.com/news/students-stranded-hotel-accidentally-shreds-174413457.html

The group of high school students of Barr Beacon School on a ski trip in New Hampshire had to extend their trip by four days as they await emergency documents from the British Embassy. Along with the four staff members leading the trip, around 42 passports were destroyed.

The Kancamagus Lodge, where the students had stayed during the trip, did not appear to have any explanation for why they had shredded the passports other than it had happened by mistake.

WEIRD! First off, shouldn't your passport always be in your hands when you visit a country. Secondly, how in the F does ANYONE, in particular a place of lodging, "accidentally shred" a passport? Same question regarding 42 passports!!

Unless, maybe they got 42 and 420 confused... 🤨

The U.K. Briefly Considered Killing All Pet Cats Early in the Pandemic

https://time.com/6259763/uk-considered-killing-cats-pandemic/

In the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, when little was known about the novel virus, the U.K. government briefly considered asking the public to exterminate every cat amid fears that the pets could spread the disease.

Matt Hancock, who was Health Minister from 2018 to 2021...was the subject of numerous personal and professional scandals, culminating in his resignation in June 2021 amid scandal for breaking COVID-19 restrictions. Among the revelations shared by Oakeshott was that Hancock dismissed expert advice to test anyone entering a care home for COVID-19 in the early days of the outbreak. In the first two years of the pandemic, Britain recorded over 40,000 COVID-19 related deaths in care homes.

It doesn't surprise me that an overpaid idiot ignores advice from experts and believes themself somehow "smarter" than people that have real knowledge about infectious diseases! Of course, any person or people who actually seriously pondering murdering pet cats is just beyond stupid. Then again, we expect our politicians to be stupid these days, it's almost part of their job requirement

Heh -  at one point in time during one of the outbreaks of the plague the English killed all the cats and dogs they could find - they thought they were causing the plague.  Just made it worse since the cats and dogs killed rats - which carried the fleas that carried the contagion.
