Georg Obendoerfer was Anna's final victim. He had traveled to Colorado Springs, Colorado, with Anna and her son Oskar. When he died, Oskar testified against his mother that he, his mother, and Obendoerfer traveled together on a train, and Georg got sick en route. An autopsy of his body revealed that he had dangerously high levels of arsenic in his body, and this further intrigued the authorities. Further examination was done to two of Anna's previous clients, and they too had high amounts of arsenic in their systems. | Georg Obendoerfer was Anna's final victim.
