Stamford, Conn. -- Five months after juice spiked with dishwashing soap sickened more than 40 people during a church communion service, police on Monday arrested an employee of the store where the juice was purchased.
Wendell Woodroffe, 28, was charged with 22 counts of assault and 22 counts of assault of a victim 60 or older, said Darien police Lt. Ron Bussell. Bail was set at $50,000 and he was expected to be arraigned Tuesday, Bussell said.
"We're very happy we brought it to a conclusion," Bussell said. "Everyone wanted to make sure this didn't happen again."
More than 40 people became ill during a communion service Feb. 5 at Calvary Baptist Church in Darien, and five were treated at hospitals for nausea and vomiting.

The article doesn't say. Perhaps he opened some lids which "pop up" when opened, and the purchasers didn't notice it.
Okay, I thought you might have other information. I was wondering how the juice could have been adulterated without the purchasers' noticing before it was used.
