Husband and Wife divorce.
Wife allegedly hires her ex-husband and her boyfriend to murder Husband.
Husband is shot three times, but survives.
Wife serves eight months in jail awaiting trial.
Then Wife and her accomplices all plead guilty to criminal conspiracy to commit Husband’s homicide.
Wife is sentenced to between six and twelve years in prison.
And while serving her sentence, Wife files divorce court papers:
- seeking alimony for the time period between her arrest and her guilty plea
- seeking distribution of marital personal property she claims Husband withheld from her
- seeking part of Husband’s pension
The family court rules against Wife on her alimony and personal property claims, but rules in Wife’s favor on her pension claim.
The criminal court ordered Wife and her accomplices to pay Husband $2,300 in restitution. So far, Husband has been able to collect a total of $80.
Husband suffers from permanent nerve damage, shotgun “pellets” embedded in his head, anxiety and nightmares .. and, from his perspective, legal abuse.
