Woman accused over fiance's kayaking death in Husdon River pleads guilty

A woman who was accused of intentionally drowning her fiance in the Hudson River by tampering with his kayak as part of a murderous plot to collect on his life insurance has pleaded guilty to a lesser charge.

Angelika Graswald, a Latvian national, had been charged with secretly removing a drain plug from Vincent Viafore's kayak before a day-long boating excursion and then watching him drown after he capsized in the river in 2015.
