Court won't hear cyanide case appeal
PITTSBURGH — The Pennsylvania Supreme Court has declined to hear the appeal of a former University of Pittsburgh medical researcher in the poisoning death of his wife.
Robert Ferrante, 69, was convicted of first-degree murder and sentenced to life without parole in the April 2013 death of 41-year-old Autumn Klein. Allegheny County prosecutors said he put cyanide in her energy drink.
