Police on Friday arrested a 12-year-old Colorado girl accused of trying to kill her mother twice by poisoning her with bleach for taking away her iPhone, authorities said.
Boulder County Sheriffs Commander Heidi Prentup said in a statement that the mother drank the caustic fluid on one of the two attempts, which both happened within a week this month.
On March 2, the girl poured bleach into a breakfast smoothie that she had prepared for her mother, Prentup said.
Mom noticed an odor of bleach in the drink and thought her daughter had cleaned the glass prior to making the beverage and did not rinse all the bleach out, the police statement said.

It's probably safe to say this girl has some mental issues. I hope she get's evaluated and gets the help she needs.
