An Indiana woman was recently arrested after an attempt at taking vengeance on her cheating husband put her young son in the hospital instead, according to law enforcement in the Hoosier State.

The child suffered from a rare condition known as Refeeding Syndrome – a condition where food is reintroduced to a person previously deprived of nutrients, police said.

"The Petitioner had been ordered to leave and was ready to leave," the order reads. "Petitioner was kept in custody after June 11. Due process requires more, and plainly so."

"He responded that he was not like his dad; he stated that he was good and that his dad put him in prison for not minding his business," police wrote.

"To count on disclosure to prevent corruption is as much as to give up on the goal itself," Justice Kagan writes.

The man allegedly admitted that he had been planning to kill his wife for several days, police said.

The woman also told investigators her ex-boyfriend previously threatened to stab her with a kitchen knife and kill her friends, according to law enforcement.

The defendant demanded that the victim hand over his phone or he would "beat his brains in," authorities said.

"Limitless tariffs were unlawful the first time, and changing the label did not make them any less illegal the second time."

Investigators say the woman secured "the child and his car seat in the backseat of her vehicle" and had plans to drop the boy off at daycare "but she did not."
