A Virginia man escalated a feud with his mother-in-law to lethal proportions by poisoning her coffee with methamphetamine, according to prosecutors’ evidence.

Jack David Price’s 95-year-old mother-in-law, Ester Price, was admitted to a hospital last year when she began showing signs of having meth in her system. The woman told authorities that on the day she became ill, her son-in-law had brought her coffee, which she thought was unusual, according to the News & Advance.

Her granddaughter, who is Jack Price’s stepdaughter, told the authorities that she believed he had tried to poison his mother-in-law, the Associated Press reports. Investigators were also told by a neighbor that Jack Price once talked about putting meth in his mother-in-law’s coffee, but then claimed he was only kidding after the neighbor expressed discomfort about the comment.

Jack was sentenced to six years in prison on Oct. 3 after reaching a plea deal for prosecutors to drop an attempted first-degree murder charge in exchange for a guilty plea. He was instead sentenced for altering food, drink, or drugs.
