COLUMBIA, Tenn. (AP) - A judge sentenced a Columbia woman to 18 months in jail in the death of her husband during a sex game.
Rebecca Bargy, 26, was sentenced Monday in the April 2008 death of her 29-year-old husband James Bargy, according to The Daily Herald of Columbia.
Rebecca was convicted May 20 of negligent homicide - a lesser charge than the second-degree murder indictment against her. She was accused of tying up and gagging her husband as part of a bondage fantasy and leaving him alone in their mobile home for 20 hours, while she was with another man she had met on the Internet.
A medical examiner testified James died of suffocation.
Rebecca was ordered to serve her sentence in the Maury County Jail.
