In this episode, I look at the origins of Atropa belladonna—a plant whose name combines myth, beauty, and lethal intent. I then examine how its deadly properties were used in two real crimes: the 1977 poisoning committed by Roland Roussel, and the 1994 case involving Paul Agutter. This is a closer look at how ancient knowledge and modern motives collided through one toxic plant.
