A little spoonful will make the hate go away or something. But, that's just me.Adnan Othman Nasaara, 46, has reportedly admitted to lacing food and drink in the Lerner family home with pesticides, because he "hates Jews."[...]
The case dates back to mid October last year, when the Lerners were the victims of a home invasion. Shortly after reporting the incident to the police, Eyal Lerner – having taken a drink form a juice bottle in the family's kitchen – collapsed and was hospitalized in serious condition.
His wife, Yifat, and the couple's toddler son were hospitalized shortly thereafter in moderate condition. All three exhibited the symptoms of poisoning.
Nasaara was arrested following a joint operation by the police and the IDF. During a search of his home, police found several hazardous pesticides.
According to the police, he admitted his involvement in the case and reenacted it for the investigators.
