Milton man sentenced in poisoning case
ELMENDORF AIR FORCE BASE, ALASKA (Gazette staff and Associated Press) -- A Milton man has been sentenced to nine years and six months in federal prison after being found guilty on charges he laced his wife’s food with ulcer medication to force her to miscarry.
A military panel Saturday sentenced Airman 1st Class Scott Boie, 23. In addition to the prison time, Boie’s sentence included a dishonorable discharge, a forfeiture of pay and a reduction in rank to the lowest possible, Master Sgt. Demetrius Lester said.
Boie was found guilty Friday of attempting to kill an unborn child, Lester said.
He is accused of poisoning his wife, Caylinn Boie, 21, sometime between April and June 2008 by lacing her food with Misoprostol, a drug used to treat stomach ulcers and also is known to cause miscarriages and induced abortions.

Yikes! Just when you think you've heard everything, a new low in humanity rears its ugly head. Hope she ran, not walked, to the nearest divorce lawyer.
