The day shift lab tech grabbed a sample of Christine's stomach contents and extracted a sample and put it into a test tube. She did all of the procedures that would tell her what kind of poisoning was used and then took her findings and went over to the Chemical Analysis computer and enterd her findings. After a couple seconds the results popped up, this wasn't very good. She took the paper that the doctor sent her with the hospital's number and dialed it, she received the doctor's nurse.
'Hello, how may I help you?'
'Yes, this is Amy Reynolds, from the crime lab. I was told to call you with the results.'
'Let me grab a piece of paper,' the nurse grabbed a piece of paper, 'Go ahead.'
'There was two poison's found. Arsenic and Cyanide, the antidote for Arsenic, is Dimercaprol and the hospital should have that. Cyanide, has three different antidotes, amyl nitrite, sodium nitrite and sodium thiosulfate. There wasn't enough of each poison to kell her, alone. But having them mixed, could be fatal.'
'Ok, I'll run this to him right away Ms. Reynolds, thank you.'
'You're welcome.'
Amy turned back to her table and picked up the bag that once contained the MNM's and the Gatoraide and headed to the print lab. She sat down at her chair and picked up a spray botthe containing ninhydrin and sprayed it on the MNM bag. She scanned it into the computer and then went back to the Gatoraide bottle. She checked around the top, but there wasn't any good usable prints. She used the ninhydrin on the paper of the bottle and got one, she scanned that one into the computer. She collected two small trace amounts of some powder from both the bottle and the candy wrapper. She checked the computer and ran the fingerprints through AFIS. The print on the MNM's matched a Travis Jones.
'Wait, isn't that the guy Christine killed in self defense?' Amy thought.
She ran the print from the Gatoraide through AFIS as well, the same guy.

The doctor entered the room, with the four antidotes, 'We've found out that she has been poisoned with Arsenic and Cyanide. We've got the antidotes to give her.' He took out one of the shots, 'The first one, Dimercaprol, is the antidote for the Arsenic.' The doctor took out three more shots, 'Cyanide has three different antidotes, the first one is amyl nitrite, the second is sodium nitrite and the third is sodium thiosulfate.' The doctor administered all of the antidotes and left Christine and Chris alone.

It now made sense to her, he must have put these items in Christine's house and they got moved into Chris' house when they moved her stuff in. She remembered that, because they had volunteered to move her stuff for her, because she didn't want to go back. She picked up her cell phone and called Chris'.
