A Canadian citizen who sent President Trump a letter laced with ricin, a poison made from castor beans, has pleaded guilty to “prohibitions relating to biological weapons.”
As Gateway Pundit previously reported in 2020, Pascale Cécile Véronique Ferrier, 55, was arrested at the New York-Ontario border after federal agents discovered she had sent a letter to the White House containing ricin.
In addition to sending the letter to Trump, Ferrier sent ricin-laced letters to eight Texas state law enforcement officers.
For separate letters sent to Texas law enforcement agents, Ferrier pleaded guilty to eight more counts related to bioweapons.
