A Utah woman who was arrested earlier this week for allegedly giving her a boyfriend a spoonful of drain cleaner told police she wanted him to “go into eternal sleep.”

Police were called to a Salt Lake City hospital around 8:40 p.m. on Monday for a 50-year-old man who’d swallowed drain cleaner, a probable cause statement said.

Elle Yoshio Weissman, 43, of South Salt Lake was arrested Tuesday and booked into Salt Lake County Jail on suspicion of attempted murder and surreptitious administering of a certain substance – both second-degree felonies, according to the Salt Lake Tribune.
