BOULDER — A 36-year- old woman suspected of fatally stabbing her husband in their Boulder home in August pleaded guilty Friday to criminally negligent homicide. Her attorney said he’s going to ask a judge to sentence Traci Housman to probation because “she was defending herself,” the Daily Camera reports.
Criminally negligent homicide has a sentencing range of between one to three years in prison, but the judge has the ultimate say.
Housman originally was charged with second-degree murder in the stabbing death of John Housman, and she could have been sentenced to between 10 to 32 years in prison. She was expected to accept a plea deal last month but changed her mind.
