Mum who fatally injected ex-husband with poison caught red-handed with his dashcam

A mother-of-three who killed her ex-husband by injecting him with poison was busted through his dashcam footage.

Amanda Hovonec, 37, was recorded in her estranged ex’s car wrestling him to the floor and then injecting him with M99 in the shoulder, according to investigators.

M99 is an anesthetic that is around 3,000 times more powerful than morphine and is used on rhinos and other zoo animals.

Timothy Hovanec, who divorced Amanda in 2020, was returning their children to her on April 24 in the evening, court documents state. Amanda and her mother Anita Green were waiting outside her home in Wapakoneta, Ohio, and Green led the children in telling them, ‘I have a surprise for you inside.’

Meanwhile, Amanda jumped on Timothy as he unloaded the kids’ car sets, per a sentencing brief.
