A grandma has been arrested after allegedly poisoning her two grandchildren with cake, k!lling one.

Izabel Cardoso de Andrade, 59, is accused of baking the de@dly treat during the summer holidays while her grandchildren were visiting.

The nine-year-old victim, Alana dos Santos Cardoso Marques, fell gravely ill almost immediately, while her 11-year-old sister, who ate less, experienced milder symptoms. Even the family cat suffered after tasting the treat. Both children began vomiting and complaining of severe stomach pain after consuming the cake on July 23.

Alana was said to have expelled a white liquid from her nose, prompting her grandparents to call for help.

Grandma arrested after she

A neighbour rushed her to hospital, but she tragically di3d from cardiopulmonary arrest shortly after arrival.

Police discovered the cat had also di3d after showing the same symptoms. Authorities collected samples of the cake for testing at the family home in São Francisco, east of Brazil.

Cardoso de Andrade was arrested on Friday, September 19. Forensic tests revealed terbufos – a toxic pesticide – in both the cake and Alana’s body. The chemical attacks the central nervous system, causing muscle weakness and, in high doses, de@th. Other symptoms include seizures, breathing difficulties and cramps, leading to possible neurological damage and even de@th.

After being examined by a vet, the cat was found to have di3d of liver failure, suggesting poisoning as a likely cause of de@th.

The suspect’s lawyer, Raphael Sim es de Moraes Neto, said his client voluntarily worked with investigators and allowed searches at her home.

Officers said they were investigating whether the poisionig was intentional or a terrible accident, and are not yet aware of any motive. The investigation is ongoing.
