BOONE — A 33-year-old Boone woman recently was sentenced to 40 years in prison after pleading guilty to second-degree murder.
The charge stemmed from a 2019 case in West Virginia in which Anna Marie Choudhary helped kill a man; the other two accomplices in the murder were her father and sister — who later married each other.
