Turns out Susan Wright is going to get another bite at the
sentencing apple.A woman convicted of tying her husband to their bed and stabbing him almost 200 times will get a new punishment phase because of ineffective assistance of counsel in her trial.
However, if jurors in a new punishment phase decide against sudden passion, she could would face a maximum sentence of life in prison.
So it looks like the stripper with the heart of gold gets another roll of the dice. But at least she stands a chance to get
life behind bars if the jury doesn't believe her bullshit about stabbing her husband 173 times out of self defense.
