58:45Now PlayingA Hendersonville, North Carolina mother is accused of poisoning her own family with deadly acetonitrile (a chemical that turns into cyanide) during Thanksgiving dinner 2025 — killing her 32-year-old daughter Leela Jean Livis and hospitalizing two others.
Gudrun Linda Jean Casper-Leinenkugel, a former Asheville restaurateur, faces two counts of first-degree murder, two counts of attempted murder, and multiple counts of distributing a prohibited substance. The investigation also linked her to the 2007 poisoning death of Michael “Mischa” Schmidt, reopening an 18-year-old cold case. Let's discuss everything we know so far.
