A Lansdale woman is headed to state prison after pleading guilty to aggravated assault charges, stemming from a violent domestic disturbance in which she stabbed her husband twice in Nov. 2015.
Michelle Lynn Everett, 47, was sentenced to serve 4-to-8 years in the State Correctional Institution at Muncy by Judge Thomas C. Branca, according to a report by Carl Hessler Jr. at the Pottstown Mercury. The report states that Everett will also serve five years of probation upon her release, and she has been prohibited from contacting her husband and had limitations placed on her contact with her three children.
Everett will receive credit for three years of time-served, while she was awaiting trial, the report states. The case was delayed for several years while Everett underwent multiple competency evaluations, according to the report.
According to FOX29, Lansdale Police were dispatched to the 400 block of Acorn Street during the evening of Nov. 10, 2015, for a report of a stabbing. Upon arrival, police found Everett’s husband laying on a first-floor bathroom, covered in blood from two stab wounds. The report states that the victim informed police that his wife had stabbed him, and he didn’t know where she went.
Police then found Everett hiding under a blanket in the basement. The couples three children were in the home at the time of the incident, according to the report.
