Carly Peppino (Crossing Jordan)

Carly Peppino (Susan Slome) is a villainess fromm "Post Hoc", episode 6.13 of Crossing Jordan (airdate April 18, 2007). She was the wife of Angelo Peppino, who was found dead in a junkyard. 
As revealed by detective Elliot Chandler, the Peppinos had nine domestic disturbance calls on their record and their neighbors revealed that Carly often spoke of wanting her husband dead, as she believed he was was cheating on her. In her only onscreen appearance of the episode, Carly came into the morgue to identify her husband's body--only to spitefully stab his corpse with a medical knife.
Later on, a fly was discovered in Angelo's body, having died of potassium poisoning. This served to reveal that Carly had killed her husband by poisoning his beer, as M.E. Kate Switzer determined that it would've been strong enough to mask the poison's taste. Carly was presumably arrested (offscreen) by Elliot for murdering Angelo.
== Trivia==
*Carly Peppino is similiar to Mrs. Patterson from Brooklyn Nine-Nine; both are women who poison their husbands to death out of anger at them for being unfaithful to them. A major difference is that Mrs. Patterson's husband was proven to have cheated on her, while Carly's belief that Angelo was unfaithful was believed to be delusional.
* Carly Peppino was the last true villainess of Crossing Jordan (without a Freudian Excuse or redemption)
