The judge in Misty Noel’s criminal case has affirmed her July conviction and canceled a hearing on possible contempt and setting her plea agreement aside.

Judge Larry Medlock called the plea agreement into question after seeing a TV news interview which he said conflicted with her statements in court. In it, she said she didn’t knowingly commit the crimes she was charged with and that her husband ran the family’s finances. Noel said it was important to be able to tell her side of the story.

Noel, the estranged wife of former Clark County Sheriff Jamey Noel, was sentenced July 3 after pleading guilty to 10 felonies for theft and tax evasion. She admitted to using funds from New Chapel EMS, an emergency services company her husband operated that received tax dollars.
