A crazed leftist Alabama attorney — who is facing attempted murder charges against her disabled husband by lacing his food with fentanyl multiple times — allegedly tried to pull a similar stunt while out on bond.
Sara Baker, a former attorney in Cullman, Alabama, is accused of giving her husband’s caregivers an old prescription bottle filled with 12.2 grams of purple powder believed to be fentanyl while visiting his house on July 11, Alabama.com reported.
Her husband, James “Doyle” Baker, was left homebound and needing medical care after surviving a stroke in 2022. During a visit on June 11, Baker, 75, allegedly asked one of the nurses for an empty medication bottle.
She returned on June 19 with a black bag, believed to have contained the bottle, and told the caregiver to place it into the safe inside the garage, according to court records viewed by WBRC.
The caregiver became suspicious of the package and called police, who served a search warrant on the home and discovered the medicine bottle filled with the purple substance.
Cullman police tested the substance and came back positive for fentanyl, lead investigator Zachary Latham testified in court on Friday, according to the outlet.
She was located at a home in Mountain Brook, Alabama, on July 11 and booked into a jail outside of Cullman County after a judge denied her release on bond.
“Baker committed a new criminal offense by transporting to, and storing at the victim’s residences, a large amount of the drug, fentanyl,” Circuit Judge Gregory Williams ordered Friday, according to Alabama.com. “The continued release of the defendant poses a risk to public safety and no set of conditions will reasonable assure compliance with the court’s orders regarding the defendant’s bond.”
Baker was out on a $400,000 bond after she was arrested in November for allegedly trying to poison James “Doyle” Baker.
Officials alleged Baker had put the deadly synthetic opioid in Doyle’s food and drinks over the course of several days between September 4 and September 20, 2025.
She was arrested on Nov. 25 and charged with conspiracy to commit murder, three counts of attempted murder, distribution of a controlled substance, second-degree elder abuse, second-degree domestic violence and four counts of solicitation to commit a controlled substance crime.
Baker, who previously worked in the Cullman County District Attorney’s Office, was released from jail on the nearly half-a-million-dollar bond under conditions that she have no contact with her husband.
Baker would continue to make stops at the house to pay the caregivers and intervene in her husband’s medical care, the outlet reported.
Baker’s husband testified that his wife had followed her bond conditions and had no contact with him after her first arrest.
“I have no idea why we’re here today,” Doyle Baker told the judge during the hearing. “We kept that clean all the way.”
A witness in Baker’s first arrest had been a previous client of the disgraced prosecutor when she was indicted for swallowing fentanyl in an attempt to destroy evidence.
Baker’s social media was filled with posts railing against Republicans, including one repost calling out a GOP election official accused of spiking his granddaughters’ Dairy Queen with cocaine, less than a month before her alleged drug-filled attempts.
