(AP) — A woman found guilty of stabbing her Marine husband to death during an argument in their Hawaiʻi home has been sentenced to 20 years in prison. Honolulu prosecuting attorney Steve Alm says his office asked for the maximum prison term for Evelin Iturbide at her sentencing Monday. A jury found her guilty of manslaughter for the 2018 stabbing that killed Sgt. Juan Iturbide. The 24-year-old California man was a food service specialist stationed at Marine Corps Base Hawaiʻi in Kaneohe Bay. Hawaiʻi News Now reports Evelin Iturbide will receive credit for time served.
