Paramedic Accused of Poisoning Wife and Young Daughter with Eye Drops

Joshua Lee Hunsucker could have his $1.5 million bond revoked after prosecutors filed new charges of witness intimidation against him. Investigators accuse Hunsucker of poisoning his 10-year-old daughter in an attempt to frame his in-laws. Hunsucker had already been charged with his wife Stacy Hunsucker’s 2018 murder, also believed to have been caused by eye drop poisoning. Law&Crime’s Elizabeth Millner spoke with WSOC-TV reporter Coleman Montgomery and North Carolina police chief Will Armstrong about the complex case.

One eye is acting as a lookout while the other is commiting, murder, fraud and arson.

[ciupymh]

He was lucky to have them. What a piece of work. So infuriating

[HaviccB]

The way he's side eyeing me in the thumbnail tells me he knows a thing or two about eye drops

[ChicaG-vgpj]

They think he's going to escalate? He's already escalated.

[cail]

So he got bond AFTER being charged for murdering his wife? Gosh we have a wonderful justice system heree. Smfu

[LePetitChatNoir]

Eye came straight to the comments and they didn’t disappoint! 👁️

[goldmannation]

Doing it once is crazy, but doing it twice...is DIABOLICAL.

[HellORhighwaters]

Why does he look like he needed the eyedrops the most😂

[jujuharvey]

There is absolutely not one person on earth that would volunteer to stay locked up. That's the stupidest thing I have ever heard of in my life!

[nicolegroves]

They say the eyes are the windows to the soul. His are the windows to Arkham Asylum.

[jbak]

He got some nerve with his eyes looking like that…. Jealous A

[Larissa-dtnc]

Crazy.... hes a danger to anyone around him

[purawesomeness]

How does it take 5 years to charge him and almost 7 years later not even have a trial yet smh

[Eeveelyn]

I was wondering how a paramedic intentionally sets fire to a flying helicopter, forcing it to do an emergency landing and doesn't end up in jail or a mental institution... and then they said he was charged with burning personal property 🤦‍♀️ How is that not attempted murder or something? And that's after being charged with poisoning his wife. Did no one notice he's clearly a danger to society and his children? Then he poisons his daughter and somehow after all of this is still allowed to be out to stalk the in-laws and children.

Dear Elizabeth, I am always happy when you present Sidebar. I could listen to you all day, as well as, Jesse. From a grandmother in NJ.

[MegaFarbrorBosse]

“We’ve got a crazy crime story that criss-crosses the last 8 years”

Yes, and time isn’t the only thing that is criss-crossed in this story… 👀

[ezgd]

That smile should've been a red flag.

[annette]

That guy is dangerous. He needs to stay in jail.

[iamReddington]

1:52 he poisoned and killed his wife, but gets out on bond. Gotta love the US.

[consultant]

Just 4 years ago there was another similar case of a wife a former nurse, Lana Sue Clayton, killing her husband using the same eye drops! Just insane what some people are prepared to do
