A Wisconsin woman, Amanda Alicia Chapin, 51, is facing a potential sentence of more than a decade in prison for poisoning her 71-year-old veterinarian husband, Gary Chapin. The disturbing incident involved Chapin spiking her husband's coffee with animal euthanasia drugs multiple times shortly after their wedding, ultimately leading to him falling into a coma.
Chapin pleaded no contest to a charge of felony first-degree reckless endangering the safety of her husband in a Wisconsin Circuit Court. The initial charge of first-degree attempted homicide was downgraded as part of a plea deal with Lafayette County prosecutors.
