She was convicted of fatally shooting her pastor husband, Matthew Winkler, in 2006. Stories of the abuse she suffered came to light soon after her arrest.
The time set by the court system to be done has been served in jail and in a mental institution. Now, according to the links reference below, Mary Winkler has her children back. The girls will enroll in local schools and the family will continue rebuilding their lives.
May God Be With Them.
