Joe Cinque
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Joe Cinque was a civil engineer, living in Canberra, who died in 1997 as a result of a heroin overdose administered by his girlfriend Anu Singh. Singh had first laced his coffee with Rohypnol. Singh was subsequently acquitted of murder but convicted of manslaughter over the death, and sentenced to ten years imprisonment. She was paroled after four years. The incident was the basis of Australian author Helen Garner's book Joe Cinque's Consolation.
