The Supreme Court will decide whether an anti-terrorism law can be applied to a jealous woman who tried to harm her husband's mistress with deadly chemicals. The high court agreed Tuesday to hear an appeal from a woman sentenced to six years in prison after admitting to trying to harm her husband's mistress with toxic chemicals she stole from her workplace. Prosecutors charged her with a federal chemical weapons violation, a law her attorneys said is meant for rogue states and terrorists, not someone in a love triangle.
