Texas beauty Susan Wright appeared to have a fairytale life with an adoring husband, Jeff, two beautiful kids, and close family and friends. But in 2003, six years into their marriage, the fairy tale crumbles when Jeff is found dead and buried in the backyard of their suburban home. The close-knit community is shocked as police accuse Susan of pre-meditated murder -- luring her husband into the bedroom, tying him up and violently stabbing him almost 200 times before haphazardly cleaning up the crime scene. As Jeff's family reels from the devastating news, Susan begins to mount her aggressive defense; that she needed to kill Jeff out of self-preservation for herself and her children after years of physical and mental abuse. But prosecutor Kelly Siegler is skeptical of her defense and forcefully argues she is a cunning, doe-eyed sociopath, who has used her good looks to try to get away with anything in life -- even murder. The jury rejected her claim of self-defense, and sentenced "the blue-eyed butcher" to 25 years in prison for murder. In 2009 the Texas appeals court granted Wright a new sentencing hearing, after determining that her "counsel rendered ineffective assistance during the punishment phase of trial." On November 20, 2010, Wright was re-sentenced to 20 years in prison, five years less than her original sentence. 德州美苏珊·赖特与崇拜的丈夫,杰夫,两个漂亮的孩子,与其关系密切的家庭和朋友,似乎有一个童话般的生活。但在2003年,6年后他们的婚姻,童话崩溃时,杰夫被发现死并埋在后院郊区的家。紧密的社区警察指责苏珊震惊早有预谋谋杀 - 引诱她的丈夫走进卧室,把他绑起来,猛烈地刺向他之前胡乱清理犯罪现场的近200倍。正如杰夫的家庭盘从毁灭性的消息,苏珊开始装入她凶悍的防守,她需要杀杰夫为她和她的孩子自我保护,经过多年的身体和精神虐待。但检察官凯利·西格勒是怀疑她的防御,并有力地认为她是一个狡猾,母鹿眼睛反社会的人,谁使用了她的美貌,以努力摆脱生活中的事物 - 甚至谋杀。陪审团拒绝了她的要求自卫“蓝眼睛的屠夫”,判处25年徒刑的谋杀。德克萨斯州上诉法院在2009年授予赖特一个新的量刑听证会,确定后,相刑的审判过程中,她的“律师所提供的援助不力。”2010年11月20日,赖特被重新判处20年徒刑,5年不到她的原句。
