MOUNT VERNON, Ohio -- A Knox County man who admitted to the murder of his wife was sentenced Friday.
Elmer Chandler, 74, pleaded guilty to the murder charge in December. He was sentenced to 15 years to life in prison Friday, NBC 4 reported.
Chandler was arrested in May for allegedly killing his 73-year-old wife, Joanne.
Investigators said they believe the murder might have stemmed from an ongoing dispute between the couple over an affair Joanne was having with a family friend.
