Twenty-nine years after being sentenced to life in prison for feeding her estranged husband Valium-laced macaroni salad before an accomplice fatally stabbed him, Judith Ann McBride is a free woman.
McBride, 65, was released from prison last week -- 10 months after Gov. Jack Markell commuted her sentence from "natural life [in prison] plus 10 years" to a "life sentence with the possibility of parole." The state Board of Parole, which had the last say on her release, granted her freedom recently. The board's chairman, Dwight F. Holden, did not return calls to explain the decision.
