Tichina Marshall, a 29-year-old former Wendy's employee in Danville, Illinois, has been sentenced to 12 years in prison after pleading guilty to attempted first-degree murder following a stabbing attack on a co-worker in May 2025. Prosecutors said a video was captured of Marshall stabbing the woman in the face and head while telling her, 'I am going to kill you.'
The news came after Marshall's aggravated battery charge was dropped as part of a plea deal. She had initially been charged with attempted murder and aggravated battery and faced up to 30 years in prison after the attack at the now-closed Wendy's restaurant.
