An Arizona woman accused of trying to poison her husband’s coffee with bleach was sentenced Friday, CNN reported.
Melody Felicano Johnson, 40, initially charged with attempted first-degree murder, pleaded guilty in April 2024 to two counts of the lesser felony of adding poison or a harmful substance to food or drink. Although Judge Javier Chon-Lopez could have sentenced Johnson to up to two years in prison for each count, he opted for three years of probation, according to CNN. The judge took into account her nearly one year in custody after being unable to afford the $250,000 bond, according to the outlet. Her sentence also reportedly includes mandatory mental health treatment.
