Preacher’s wife

Jun 22 2007 | Comments 0

EVS sent me the latest news about Mary Winkler, the woman who shot her husband, a preacher, in their home. The murder sent shock waves through the religious community of Selmer, Tenn. Everyone wanted to know why she did it, but there was no clear answer for a long time. She was very reticent.

She got an unbelievably light sentence for that murder — 210 days and three years probation — because she was ultimately convicted of voluntary manslaughter, which has a maximum in that state of six years. She’s now moving to a mental health facility, which was a condition of her sentence. When she finishes her 60 days there, she’ll be able to go home.
