Marsee was previously charged with murder, but prosecutors downgraded the charge after her guilty plea.

She stabbed her husband, Austin Harrison, 24, last May with a fishing filet knife after they were fighting over it in a parking lot in the 2000 block of E. Pontiac Street. Harrison kicked Marsee out of the house earlier the same day of the stabbing.

Harrison died at the scene.
