Roommate's Revenge Plan: Visine Poisoning, Dog Fight
We always thought that Visine poisoning was an urban legend, but a crazy story from Long Island seems to suggest otherwise. Twenty-four year-old Kristine Anzalone has pleaded not guilty to second-degree assault and third-degree criminal mischief after being arrested for allegedly spiking her roommate's drink with Visine and then agitating his dogs to get into a fight.
According to Newsday, Anzalone and her husband Christopher lived with a male roommate in a North Bellmore home for a few months. But the three squabbled over rent as well as the roommate's smoking while Anzalone was pregnant. Last June, she allegedly gave the roommate an iced tea with "unknown amount of Visine," which does contain the chemical tetrahydrozoline. The roommate suffered intestinal distress, including vomiting and rectal bleeding, plus had trouble breathing and was admitted to the hospital.
Then, a few months later, after returning from a business trip, the roommate found his Chihuahua had been killed by his pit bull. A witness told him Anzalone used a cane to provoke the pit bull into attacking the smaller dog.
And then the roommate took the couple, now living in East Rockaway, to small claims court when Christopher Anzalone took his big screen TV. The Nassau police say that assault charges took time because of "reluctant witnesses" (the roommate found out about the Visine poisoning from friends). Anzalone's lawyer said, "The facts will show that she had nothing to do with this."

24. Pregnant. Long Island rental. Male roommate. Dead chihuahua. ALL CLASS. Stay strong, LI.
Interesting story. Is there sympathy for her because she was pregnant and he was smoking?
Also, you wrote "Twenty-four year-old Kristine Anzalone was has pleaded not guilty to second-degree assault"
I don't think that "was has" is proper grammar.
Of course she has a Myspace with annoying catch phrases.

She looks like Christina Applegate, though slightly less cross-eyed.
I'd definitely hit that.
Botox lip injections, anyone...
If there was ever a candidate for botox lip injections...
Looks like Visine does more than just get the red out.

I think you mean collagen, not Botox.
One more time, Jrod?

Slight sympathy for her because the dude was smoking while she was pregnant. Beyond that, though, the whole dog thing is fucked up.
My favorite part is that her MySpace page has her last login as Tuesday and that she was "grumpy" - I can imagine!
