Susan Wright Gets Second Sentence

Susan Wright Re-sentenced November 1, 2010

Susan Wright claimed self-defense when she stabbed her husband 193 times and partially buried him in a hole he dug for a bathroom remodel project he had been working on. She didn’t tell police either. Instead she went about living a normal life as her husband laid dead in the family home.

The part of the story that disturbs me the most about Susan is that her little boy knocked on the door in the middle of her murderous rage, and she stopped, put him back to bed and then went after her husband again.

It gives me the chills.

You can read my original thoughts on Susan Wright here.

It appears Susan’s second sentencing hearing paid off. She got five less years.

Here is a poll of what people thought of Susan after seeing her on 48 Hours.

Many thanks to Karon for her keeping us updated on this story! Please note the comment system is not working at this time. I am trying to get assistance.
