Remember the Guy Who Drank Fish Tank Cleaner and Died? Police Think His Wife Killed Him

I'm old enough to remember when the sophisticated media like CNN and the New York Times blamed President Trump for this death ...... I remember how the anti-Trump social media trolls filled Facebook, twitter with this blood libel .......

How fast does the news cycle change?

The Mesa City Police Department’s homicide division is investigating the death of Gary Lenius, the Arizona man whose wife served him soda mixed with fish tank cleaner in what she claimed was a bid to fend off the coronavirus.

Gary Lenius, 68, died on March 22. Wanda, 61, told several news outlets last month that both she and her husband had ingested a substance used to clean aquariums after hearing President Donald Trump tout one of its ingredients, chloroquine phosphate, from the White House briefing room.

Though that report and others suggested the couple mindlessly followed the president’s medical advice to disastrous results, friends of Gary Lenius described Lenius as a levelheaded retired engineer and recounted a troubled marital relationship that included a previous domestic assault charge against his wife, of which she was ultimately found not guilty. They found it difficult to believe the man would mindlessly ingest fish tank cleaner and these doubts led to the police opening an investigation.
