Man poisoned his wife’s coffee and gets just 60 days in jail

A man in Michigan who was convicted of poisoning his wife by spiking her coffee received a sentence of 60 days in jail on Thursday — which he will serve on the weekends.

Brian Kozlowski, 46 — whose wife said he tried to kill her by placing eight sleeping pills in her morning coffee — was handed the sentence after an impassioned plea from the former wife, Therese Kozlowski, according to The Macomb Daily.

“Brian’s continuous, methodical, and calculated plot to poison me included a complete disregard for human life, including his own daughter, along with hundreds of other drivers who he put at risk every day for weeks,” Therese Kozlowski said in court.

“I believe this was attempted murder. Once Brian realized he lost me and there was no getting me to stay in this unhealthy marriage, his goal was to eliminate me.”

Judge Antonio Viviano in Macomb County Circuit Court was inclined to give the man probation until he heard her plea.

The coffee spiking took place during the couple’s divorce in 2018. Therese said she felt tired and sick and had blurred vision after drinking the poisoned coffee.

At one point, the couple’s adult daughter even drank the java.

Judge Viviano claimed that the ex-husband “does have a sense of remorse.” Viviano then handed him the two-month jail term, to be served on weekends.

The prosecutor in the case called it, “It’s a slap in the face” to the victim.
