Canton Woman Gets 15 to Life in Stabbing Death of Akron Woman

CANTON, Ohio (News Talk 1480 WHBC) – The Canton woman accused of stabbing an Akron woman to death last June will do 15-years to life in prison.

33-year-old Cher Wagner was sentenced Tuesday in Summit County Common Pleas Court.

They say Wagner later chased Avery down and stabbed her in the chest.
