Origin

Robert Pronge was a killer who was also known as Mister Softee as he used to drive a Mister Softee ice cream truck to appear inconspicuous while surveying potential victims. In the early 1980s Pronge became acquainted with another killer named Richard Kuklinski and taught the man how to effectively kill with poisons like cyanide. When Kuklinski discovered that Pronge was going to kill hundreds just to kill a family by poisoning an entire reservoir with ricin the pair had a falling out. Pronge threatened Kuklinski’s family and the two parted ways. In August Pronge was found dead in his Mister Softee truck with two bullet wounds in his chest.

Effects

When ice cream is scooped with tool the result is poisonous, determined to be laced with ricin.
