Peel Regional Police are out with a warning now that a 36-year-old Kitchener woman who poisoned four children has been released from prison.
Christine Allen pleaded guilty in 2014 to administering a noxious substance with intent to cause bodily harm, and was sentenced to six years in prison.
She had poisoned four separate children with eye drops diluted in juice -- a method she said she learned by watching CSI.
Peel Regional Police have issued a public safety warning for the Brampton area -- specifically the Charolais Boulevard neighbourhood -- where Allen plans to live.
Allen is subject to numerous conditions including not being in the presence of any children under the age of 16 unless accompanied by another adult or her parole supervisor.
According to Peel Police, information they’ve received indicates that Allen is at an elevated risk to re-offend. They'll be working with Correctional Service Canada to monitor her activities.
Police are advising the public to use caution if they encounter Allen.
