IRVINE, Calif. (KCAL/KCBS) – In California, an Orange County doctor is accused of poisoning her husband with Drano.
Detectives have now released some of the video they said they used to build a case against her.
Steven Hittelman, the lawyer representing Jack Chen, said Chen’s wife tried to kill him by poisoning him with Drano.
Chen said he had 3 videos to prove it.
Screenshots taken from cameras hidden in the couple’s house were presented. They allegedly show the suspect, 45-year-old Yue Yu, who is also a local physician, pouring the drain cleaner into her husband’s lemonade.
Yu was arrested last week after the images were brought to Irvine police.
Hittelman said his client has been sick for months.
Aside from the chemical taste in his mouth, Yu’s husband was diagnosed with stomach ulcers, gastritis & inflammation of the esophagus.
He then set up the cameras in the kitchen at the family home & made the discovery.
Soon after, Chen filed a restraining order against his wife, who also goes by the name Emily.
Chen alleges longtime verbal, physical & emotional abuse which extended to their 2 children if they “let Emily know that they enjoyed spending time with me.”
Yu would put the children in their room & yell at them until they stopped showing him affection.
Chen said he has filed for divorce.
Yu was held on $30,000 bail & has since bailed out. The district attorney has not yet filed charges.
