"Grandmotherly Dorthea Puente is becoming as renowned for her cooking as for being a notorious mass murder, serial killer and all around psycho"... THE SUN
DORTHEA PUENTE has been accused of a lot of things... being a bad cook isn't one of them.
You see, Dorothea ran a boarding house in Sacramento, Ca. and the care she provided was above and beyond other care providers, but one thing everyone involved in this case keyed in on was how awesome ALL of her tenants thought the cooking was... one tenant went as far as saying " Every Dinner at Dorothea's was like Thanksgiving Dinner!"
NONE OF THEM WERE MURDERED... THEY DIED OF NATURAL CAUSES... I COULDN'T DO THAT ANYHOW, I'M NOT THAT TYPE OF PERSON... I'M TOO CARING AND I WORRY TOO MUCH ABOUT MY PEOPLE EATING... EVERYBODY CAN TELL YOU THAT, WHY WOULD I SPEND MONEY FATTENING THEN UP IF I WAS GOING TO KILL THEM." ... DOROTHEA PUENTE Convicted Killer/Gormet Cook

"This one took some balls...." Shane has to be one of the balsiest interviewers I've seen on the true crime circut, and to score the one with Thea made it even more shocking to include some of her dishes. I've yet to try to make some of these but I will say this much it is one thing to have if you collect books on true crime. It is a nice little item to have as shock value. One thing you cannot accuse Shane of is not having any balls, of all the true crime books that were written Shane took some brass balls to actually compile the dishes whipped up by the Sacremento grandmother. I learned about her first on discovery channel but there wasn't enough about her out there until this comes along.
