Appellant-defendant Barbara Joy Garcia appeals from the sentence imposed by the trial court following her conviction for Murder, a felony.1 In particular, Garcia argues that the trial court erred in imposing the presumptive sentence when it found two mitigators and no aggravators. Finding that the trial court properly concluded that imposing a reduced sentence would depreciate the seriousness of Garcia’s crime, we affirm the judgment of the trial court. FACTSOn October 30, 2003, Garcia and her husband, Cipriano Garcia (Cipriano), began arguing at their residence in Hobart. Cipriano eventually told Garcia that he was going to leave in the morning and remove her name from his bank accounts and that she would never receive another “dime” from him.
Garcia became afraid that, upon going to the bank, Cipriano would notice that she had withdrawn approximately $4,000 to give to Tammy, Garcia’s daughter and Cipriano’s stepdaughter. Garcia prepared a cup of coffee for Cipriano, dissolving Klonopin and Artane in the beverage to cause him to fall asleep. After he drank the coffee and fell asleep, Garcia retrieved insulin that she had previously taken from Tammy, who is diabetic, and injected Cipriano with a lethal amount of the drug. Garcia—a Licensed Practical Nurse—intended to inject enough insulin into Cipriano to kill him because she did not want him to go to the bank the next day.
