Sherry Hamm By Associated Press
MONTESANO, Wash. (AP) - A Grayland woman who drugged her boyfriend and dismembered his remains has pleaded guilty to second-degree murder.
Sherry Hamm entered the plea Monday and is scheduled to be sentenced on May 22 in Montesano. Grays Harbor County Prosecutor Stu Menafee told KXRO she faces 22 years in prison. Prosecutors say the 59-year-old woman put an overdose of Xanax pills in a drink she gave 62-year-old Ken Hutchinson, her boyfriend of 30 years. She cut up his body and left the remains wrapped in plastic under their trailer in Grayland. Hamm fled, but surrendered in August in Vancouver. The Aberdeen Daily World reported she also was convicted in Pacific County for stabbing and beating Hutchinson's brother during an argument. |
