Graham Frederick Young was a murderer who was obsessed with poison and used [[wikipedia:Thallium|Thallium]] to poison his victims. When he was younger he did not have many friends but he did like to read and particularly enjoyed books about [[wikipedia:Black Magic|black magic]],[[wikipedia:Forensics|forensics]] and [[wikipedia:Toxicology|toxicology]]. After his teacher found poison bottles and books about poisons in his desk at school Young was sent to [[wikipedia:Broadmoor Hospital|Broadmoor]] until 1971 where his nobsession with poison was supposedly cured. This was wrong as Young went to work in a factory where he made cups of tea laced with Thallium and went on to poison 70 more people and this earned his nickname as "The Teacup Poisoner". After this he was sent to [[wikipedia:Parkhurst (HM Prison)|Parkhurst]] where he died of a [[wikipedia:Myocardial infarction|heart attack]] in 1990.
