A Mississippi man has been arrested for attempting to poison the President. The 41 year old man sent letters to the president contain ricin, a toxic protein that can easily kill a human with extremely small doses. He was hoping that Obama himself would open the letter, and that some ricin would stick to his fingers, which he would possibly consume. Luckily the White House caught these letters before they reached the president, potentially saving Obama's life. The man, who pleaded guilty on Friday, will be sentenced in 60 days.
