A Texas woman will likely be spending significant time behind bars for killing her fifth husband with a surfeit of insulin.

On Wednesday, Sarah Jean Hartsfield, 50, was convicted by a jury of her peers in Chambers County on one count of murder for the January 2023 death of her husband, Joseph Hartsfield , 46.
