Texas Woman Gets Life for Husband’s Insulin Murder

Sarah Hartsfield, a five-time bride-to-be, received a life sentence for fatally poisoning her husband with insulin, years after another fiance's death. Other cases are being reopened.

A five-time bride-to-be convicted of murdering her most current hubby with a fatal dose of insulin– 7 years after she fatally shot and killed her then-fiancé– has been punished to life behind bars, a court ruled on Thursday.

Divorce and Restraining Order

Her 3rd marriage to Christopher Donohue ended in divorce in 2017. Donohue remarried in 2021, and asserted in a request for a restraining order that Hartsfield was plotting to have her fourth partner, David George, eliminate his brand-new better half. A court approved the order.

Sheriff’s Investigation

“Now, we have other situations that have actually been reopened in other states. I’m glad they have actually reopened those instances, due to the fact that they’re possibly mosting likely to locate the very same, similar situation as what we have,” Chambers Area Sheriff Brian Hawthorne told KHOU.

Sarah Hartsfield, a 50-year-old previous United States Military sergeant from Texas and mom of four, was condemned of poisoning her diabetic partner Joseph Hartsfield in 2023 by shooting him up with deadly levels of insulin, as the high-profile test exposed her troubling past partnerships.

Sarah Hartsfield’s lawyer, Situation Darwin, preserved throughout the week-long trial that Joseph was responsible for his own death as he was taking medication that made him much more sensitive to insulin, NBC Information reported.
