Coronation Street: Cassie ‘poisoned’ Ken
After returning to Weathefield from her holiday to Porto with Ken, Cassie was left devastated when he sacked her. Ken explained he could no longer afford to keep her on as his carer.
Cassie insisted she was fine with Ken’s decision and headed off to find herself a new job. To soften the blow, Ken offered to give her a good reference for her next role.
Later, Cassie went back to Ken’s home and made him a tea, served alongside his usual medication. However, she was also seen crushing something up and putting it in his tea while no one was looking.
