California dermatologist Yue "Emily" Yu entered a not guilty plea in Orange County court, denying allegations that she purposely tried to poison her husband with Drano by sneaking the poisonous liquid into in his tea.
The lawyer of the California dermatologist caught on camera allegedly pouring Drano into her husband's drinks said her estranged spouse was actually experiencing acid reflux, not the effects of poison.
California dermatologist Dr. Yue "Emily" Yu avoided her husband, Dr. Jack Chen, as they faced off in divorce court nearly a week after she was indicted on charges she tried to poison him with Drano in his drink.
Dr. Yue “Emily” Yu was indicted on three felony counts of poisoning and one felony count of domestic battery with corporal injury about a year after she faced accusations of spiking her husband's drinks.
