A North Carolina woman is reportedly facing an attempted murder charge after police say she drugged her husband’s energy drink in an effort to incapacitate him. 

Cheryl Harris Gates, 43, was arrested last week after allegedly lacing her husband’s Celsius energy drink with “prescription medications with the intention of causing a blackout condition or incapacitation,” according to The New York Post. 

Gates’ husband reportedly told authorities that on July 12 and Aug. 18, he became incapacitated and discovered a foreign, controlled substance in his drink. The couple lived separately at the time of the incident.

Authorities allege Gates performed several ChatGPT searches between July 8 and Sept. 29 to research “incapacitating” and “lethal” drug combinations that could either be consumed or injected, The Post reported. 

Investigators reportedly discovered evidence through online records that Gates allegedly purchased materials and attempted to carry out a plan to poison her husband. Upon searching Gates’ home, authorities also found a capsule filling kit, syringes, medical droppers, medications and scales, according to The Post.
