HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) — A Connecticut woman who prosecutors say stabbed her boyfriend in a drunken rage over back-to-school shopping disagreements has been sentenced to three months in jail.
Prosecutors say 35-year-old Naomi Williams-Wal had faced up to a year behind bars under a plea agreement offered by a judge. The Hartford Courant reports she was sentenced Thursday and has been jailed since January.
Williams-Wal’s attack on 41-year-old Dennis Campbell occurred on Aug. 14 in West Hartford. Officials say four children were present.
Williams-Wal told the judge she has worked hard to be a good mother and citizen and she is confident that she will not be a danger to anyone with the help of others.
Campbell told the judge he did not want Williams-Wal to be punished.
