SANDPOINT, Idaho -- A judge suspended a one-year jail sentence for a northern Idaho woman who pleaded guilty to reckless driving in connection to a highway confrontation with her husband last year.
First District Judge Charles Hosack instead ordered 19-year-old MacKenzie Snow Quiroz, of Clark Fork, to comply with a domestic violence evaluation and complete 80 hours of community service, during a sentencing hearing earlier this week.
Prosecutors initially charged Quiroz with felony aggravated assault with a deadly weapon after the September 2009 confrontation, in which witnesses told police she rammed her vehicle into her husband's car on a northern Idaho highway.
The Bonner County Daily Bee reports Quiroz pleaded guilty to lesser charges of reckless driving and disturbing the peace as part of an agreement with prosecutors.
