Rebecca Copin is known for attempting to poison her husband, John Copin, with arsenic. In addition, according to John Copin's petition for divorce in 1835, she also scalded him with boiling water, threatened to shoot him, and beat him with his own crutches when his leg was broken. <...> While the jury found that Rebecca Copin had indeed tried to murder John Copin, John Copin's petition for divorce was not granted.
