After separating from her husband Monty had moved in with her daughter Judy and Judys husband, Bob Lulham. The sensational trial revealed that Lulham and Monty had an "intimate relationship" while Lulhams wife was at Sunday mass. Monty was found not guilty; Judy Lulham divorced her husband as a result of the revelations about his affair and Monty killed herself with thallium in 1955. In July 1953, Sydney woman Beryl Hague was tried for "maliciously administering thallium and endangering her husbands life". Hague confessed to buying Thall-rat from a corner shop and putting it in her husbands tea because she wanted to "give him a headache to repay the many headaches he had given me" in violent disputes. In 1953 Australian Caroline Grills was sentenced to life in prison after three family members and a close family friend died. Authorities found thallium in tea that she had given to two other family members. Grills spent the rest of her life in Sydneys Long Bay Gaol, where fellow inmates dubbed her "Aunt Thally".The Australian TV documentary Recipe for Murder, released in 2011, examined three of the most sensational and widely reported Australian thallium poisonings, the Fletcher, Monty and Grills cases.

Félix-Roland Moumié, a Cameroonian leader, was assassinated with thallium in Geneva on 3 November 1960 by a former agent of the SDECE (French secret service) probably at the request of Cameroonian authorities.
