COLEMAN, Texas (WJW) – In Texas, a woman is being charged with plotting to kill her former spouse by allegedly attempting to send him fentanyl-tainted chocolates.

The Parker County Sheriff’s Office began looking into the case after a tip-off suggested that Pamela Jean Stanley, aged 63, had intentions to murder her ex-husband, who had just announced his engagement.

According to investigators, Stanley was captured on tape expressing a desire to acquire fentanyl and “inject” it into a box of chocolates to send to her ex-husband. Her plan was reportedly to disguise the chocolates as a “congratulatory gift” from a travel agency, complete with a honeymoon offer, as reported by the sheriff’s office.

Undercover agents with the office’s Special Crimes Unit convinced Stanley to meet them to buy fentanyl in the parking lot of a motel in Coleman, Texas, the sheriff’s office said. They took her into custody after the operation.

Upon arrest, Stanley was also found to be in possession of 9.5 grams of methamphetamine.

Stanley has since been indicted for “criminal solicitation with intent to commit murder, criminal attempt to commit murder, and possession of a controlled substance with intent to deliver,” according to the sheriff’s office.
