Rhonda Norman was sentenced to life in prison Thursday for the murder of her former boyfriend's mother, Jane Tackaberry, and attempted murder of his 6-year-old son...
Jurors earlier recommended 9-3 that Norman die by lethal injection for orchestrating the attack out of jealousy and anger at John Tackaberry, but Circuit Judge Sandra McSorley rejected that. "I hope you are consumed by the horror of your conduct while you reside in prison for the rest of your natural life," McSorley said...
McSorley earlier sentenced Norman's partner in the crime, Wes McGee, to life in prison after a jury recommended that sentence.
