Mary Winkler Sentenced

Mary Winkler was sentenced to three years in prison, but will probably be released within a week or two.
A woman who killed her preacher husband with a shotgun blast to the back as he lay in bed was sentenced Friday to three years in prison, but with time served could be released on probation in a little more than two months.
Mary Winkler must serve at least 210 days of her sentence but gets credit for the 143 days she has already spent in jail, Judge Weber McCraw said.
That leaves 67 days, and McCraw said up to 60 days of the sentence could be served in a facility where she could receive mental health treatment. That means Winkler might spend only another week in jail.
Wow. A person's life is only worth three years, as long as you call it voluntary manslaughter instead of murder.

I have been following Mary Winklers trial and I am appaled by the total lack of any evidence. mary did not do anything legally required of her to support her abuse i.e. safe house, police, emergency rooms, photos etc. She killed her husband in cold blood as he lay sleeping. She was kiting checks and trying to ruin the family.
