A Brownville mother of 13, accused of hiring someone to kill her husband, is expected to enter a plea this morning. Wendy Farley was arrested back in September on charges of solicitation for murder.
Court papers say she offered a family friend several thousand dollars to kill her husband of 30 years and make it look like a hunting accident. That person alerted police.
Officers say they recorded Farley asking the friend to carry out the killing and then arrested her. Police say Farley told them she was looking for a way out of what she called her husband's "religious strictness."
Back in October, a judge allowed Farley visitation of her 13 children in the presence of the older children. Farley is due in Piscataquis Superior Court at 8:30 a.m.
