  1. Your post must be a screen capture of a microblog-type post that includes the UI of the site it came from, preferably also including the avatar and username of the original poster. Including relevant comments made to the original post is encouraged.
  2. Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If a post is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.

Hmm this person knew the victim, had a motive, and was really into mycology, and the autopsy had signs of poisoning from a rare mushroom…

Good deniability though.
Be publicly into micology and commonly collect mushrooms to cook when you have guests over.
Only issue would be to somehow plausably not poison yourself to death. Maybe taking little enough you survive.

And take care you aren't quite known as fully competent, spread the air of knowledge without any solid proof or association.
I'll look like you were a sham and amateur overestimating themselves.

Or just accidentally run them over with a car.

Shitty job.
She lied, behaved irrationally, couldn't get her story straight ahead of time, scenario too implausible.

You gotta admit fault, hate yourself for killing everyone. Buying poisonous mushrooms is implausible, admit you got them yourself right away, admit accidentally killing them. Swear to never touch mushrooms again.

And find a better excuse for not poisoning yourself, noone individually prepares mushroom sauce per person.

I guess manslaughter does have a smaller sentence than murder 1

I mean, anyone reading this thread right now has enough information to know that this thing is deadly, so you don’t need to be into mycology to find a way to weaponize it since it can easily be mistaken as edible.

I typically don't broadcast my hobbies and my friends wouldn't speak with the police as a general police
