She got away with murder.

She killed a white Christian male, she’ll probably get the Nobel Prize right after the Lifetime movie.
Boy! are you fast! the verdict only came out 30 minutes ago. We are waiting for the sentencing ,which probably will be shortly.
When she spoke of his alleged sexual abuse saying "he wanted to have sex with my "bottom"..I wondered what her IQ was?
Anyway, my guess is it was all an act, and she got away with it.
Disgusting. Her husband caught her kiting checks and she shot him in the back, unplugged the phone and left him to die. His last words to her were “why?” I am so angry, this is such a travesty.
“but she said the shotgun went off accidentally as she pointed it at him”
I love it when people say that.
In all the years I have handled and shot various firearms, I have yet to have one just “go off” accidentally.
I guess we are to believe that she just took the shotgun with her to have a little face to face chat with her husband.
Oops! Make that that a face to back chat.
SELMER, Tenn. – If the jury in the Mary Winkler murder trial finds her guilty of an offense less than first or second-degree murder, she will receive a relatively short sentence and perhaps not serve any time at all.
Mary Winkler, 33, is charged with first-degree murder in the March 22, 2006, shotgun slaying of Matthew, her husband and the former preacher at Fourth Street Church of Christ here.
But the jury, consisting of 10 women and two men, has the option of finding her guilty of a lesser charge or not guilty of all possible charges. If found guilty of first-degree murder, she automatically would receive a life sentence and would not be eligible for parole for 51 years.
A second-degree murder conviction would carry a sentence of 15 to 25 years and Judge Weber McCraw would sentence her later at a special hearing. She would be eligible for parole after serving 85 percent of her sentence.
A conviction for voluntary manslaughter carries a sentence range of 3 to 6 years, but that sentence would not have to include imprisonment. If convicted of reckless homicide, the sentence range is 2 to 4 years – again, jail time is not mandatory. Criminally negligent homicide has a sentence range of 1 to 2 years and does not mandate jail time either. If she did serve jail time with and of these charges, she would be eligible for parole after 30 percent of the sentence was served.
Defense attorney Leslie Ballin described the jury’s role as the "hardest job in the world," adding, "The correct decision is whatever they say it is."

What happened to the allegations that she was involved in a check-kiting scheme to pay for a Nigerian money scam and was afraid to tell her husband?
How much time does she have to serve for voluntary manslaughter? I absolutely do not believe that he raped her at the point of a shotgun. He wouldn’t need to — he was so much bigger than she.
I certainly hope they do not grant her custody of those children — EVER.
He’s dead. Who will contest her version of events? Their nine year old daughter tried, but was apparently disbelieved.
Welcome to the feminist world order.
1. The man is a pig and deserves to be murdered.
2. In any case where the man is not a pig and does not deserve to be murdered, refer to rule # 1.
I thought this was about the Fonz.
Pity this brave, sweet little soul when momma is let loose soon enough to teach her daughter a lesson about "lying".
I’ll never think of The Fonz the same way ever again.....
So glad to hear... 
it wasn’t Henry!

No kidding. She should have gotten first degree murder.
Switch genders and murder one with death sentence would have been asked for AND received
