Story here. Excerpt:

'he California Sunday school teacher accused in the shocking kidnap, rape and murder of 8-year-old Sandra Cantu is now being accused of secretly poisoning two people, including another little girl.

Melissa Huckaby, 28, will be in court in Tracy, Calif., Friday on additional charges filed alleging that she gave "a harmful substance" to a 7-year-old girl in January and an adult man in March, according to the complaint.

The little girl, identified only as Jane M. Doe, has since recovered from the Jan. 17 alleged poisoning. The man, Daniel Plowman, hasn't been located, according to the complaint filed Thursday.'

Ed. note: Michael originally this URL to the story, but I felt that the Fox story had more relevant details, so I took liberties.

"...now being accused of secretly poisoning two people, including another little girl ...additional charges filed alleging that she gave "a harmful substance" to a 7-year-old girl in January and an adult man in March, according to the complaint."

Historically, we were raised with the image that little girls were made of sugar and spice and all things nice. Is it possible that some women are made of sugar and spice, and rat poison?

I am amazed by the amount of publicity this case is recieving. Of course I shouldn't be, considering one of the victims is a female. I would bet if it were just the man, it would either get little publicity or, the woman would be presented like a celebrity/victim, especially if she could use the abuse excuse. I have heard plenty of people feeling sorrow over the little girl's death but the man's death is treated with indifference. We definately DO live in a gender biased society.
