The stripper with the heart of gold that went stabby stabby on her husband after she tied him up, then buried his body in the yard is asking to update her sentence. Who the hell is paying for her attorney?
Wright's attorney, Brian Wice, had sought a new trial because he maintained that her original attorney had provided an ineffective defense. Wallace denied the request for a new trial, but recommended the new punishment phase.

That could backfire, however, since a new jury could choose a lengthier sentence, up to life in prison.

Wice contended that jurors should have heard from some important witnesses in the original trial, including an expert on sudden passion; an expert on battered-wife syndrome; and Misty McMichael, who had dated Jeffrey Wright before he married Susan.

McMichael testified in a hearing in October that she suffered physical abuse at the hands of Jeffrey Wright during the period she dated him about 1989 to 1991.
So it's the "he beat me" route now. Four years ago it was improper methods by the D.A. I hope they up her sentence for wasting the court's time.
