Overview
- The Utah County jury, which returned its verdict Tuesday, found Meggan Randall Sundwall guilty of manslaughter and obstruction of justice and acquitted her of aggravated murder.
- CourtTV reports that a sentencing hearing is set for May 4, and the convictions carry a possible 1 to 15 years in prison.
- Investigators said Kacee Lyn Terry, 38, died in August 2024 from an overdose involving insulin and promethazine, and an autopsy found no sign of the cancer she had told relatives she had.
- Responders and relatives said Sundwall, a nurse, stayed with Terry for hours without calling for help as she cited a do‑not‑resuscitate order that investigators did not find.
- Jurors reviewed extensive text messages about suicide by insulin, and prosecutors and defense argued over control at the scene versus the possibility of suicide and the burden to prove intent.
