Minnesota Woman Sentenced for Plotting to Kill Ex-Husband

LE CENTER, Minn. (AP) -- A southern Minnesota woman has been sentenced to 15
years in prison for plotting to kill her ex-husband.

Forty-two-year-old Blanche Wilson of Le Sueur was sentenced Wednesday for
conspiracy to commit murder. She will have to spend at least nine years in
prison before she is eligible for supervised release.

Wilson and her mother, Linda Bloom of Cleveland, Minnesota, were accused last
June of enlisting an undercover officer to kill Wilson's ex-husband after he won
custody of the couple's three children.

Bloom was sentenced to more than 10 years in prison last year.
