My murderous claim to fame is one Mary Holden, who was the last woman to be hanged at Lancaster Castle in 1824(?). She poisoned her husband by putting arsenic in the teapot, but in a defence more nitpicky than even I could formulate, she pointed out that she only put the arsenic in the pot, she didn't make him drink it.
