Trial Nears For Sheila LaBarre

For two years, her story has captivated the state, and now, Sheila LaBarre is about to go on trial on charges that she murdered two men.

Prosecutors said LaBarre acted in cold blood, but her lawyers said she suffers from a mental illness.

LaBarre, 49, was charged with first-degree murder in connection with the deaths of Kenneth Countie and Michael Deloge, both former boyfriends. LaBarre has pleaded insanity, admitting that the state can prove she killed them but saying she was insane at the time.

LaBarre’s trial is scheduled to start in early May.
