Murder Victim
Quote from the Hendersonville Times News
"One of the most anticipated trials in memory fizzled out Tuesday when Gail Gash reached a surprise plea deal in the death and dismemberment of her husband.
Mrs. Gash, 52, pleaded guilty Tuesday to the second-degree murder of her husband, Don Gash, avoiding the possibility of life in prison. Judge J. Marlene Hyatt sentenced her to 15 to 19 years in prison."
2-5-2010 Mrs. Gash died on this date, in prison.
