She called the police and told them she was attempting to murder her husband. She was arrested and charged with attempted murder. Then, her charge was reduced to making threats to kill. She was sentenced to 100 hours community service. Tony Rhodes of the National Carers’ Forum said "I feel a great deal of sympathy for this lady." After all, sympathy is exactly what she needs, not jail time.
