Snapped Kristin Rossum

Status: Incarcerated

In Oxygen's Snapped, Season 1, episode 11 the story of Greg deVillers and Kristin Rossum is shown. This happens in the state of California. Oxygen describes this show as: Kristin Rossum, a forensic toxicologist, gives her husband Greg deVillers a fatal dose of Fentanyl in November 2000 and tries to pass off his death as suicide after he caught her having an affair.

Kristin Rossum was convicted of murder. She was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility for parole and a $10,000 fine

Her appeal includes:

Rossum was convicted of murdering her husband, Gregory de Villers. The prosecution's theory of the case was that Rossum poisoned de Villers using fentanyl, a powerful synthetic opiate. Rossum contends that her counsel rendered ineffective assistance by failing to have de Villers's autopsy samples tested for fentanyl metabolites, a test that would have resolved whether de Villers had in fact ingested fentanyl or whether fentanyl found in the samples was a product of laboratory contamination subsequent to his death. Rather than investigating, Rossum's counsel simply conceded that the cause of death was fentanyl.

The prosecution's case was purely circumstantial, hinging in large measure on toxicological and medical evidence which was equivocal. The fentanyl levels in de Villers's autopsy samples were extraordinarily, even unnaturally, high. While these elevated concentration levels suggested that death was immediate, they were at odds with medical evidence which indicated that de Villers lingered in a state of unconsciousness for several hours before he died.
