Overview
- A Utah County jury on Tuesday found Meggan Sundwall guilty of manslaughter and obstruction of justice and cleared her of aggravated murder.
- Court and autopsy records say Kacee Lyn Terry, 38, died from an overdose of promethazine and insulin even though she was not diabetic, and paramedics found a diabetic needle in the home.
- Prosecutors presented years of texts in which Sundwall urged Terry to use insulin, including, “I can give you insulin over and over until it works.”
- Investigators said Sundwall deleted hundreds of messages from their exchanges, which jurors concluded supported the obstruction charge.
- The case began on Aug. 12, 2024, when police found Terry unresponsive in Highland, and at trial prosecutors argued Sundwall manipulated fears about fake cancer and a believed $1.5 million policy while the defense said the evidence fit suicide.
