Originally, she was charged with the abovementioned crime and obstruction of justice.

By agreeing to a plea deal, the obstruction of justice charge was dismissed.

The plea deal also meant she potentially avoided the death penalty for the murder-for-hire charge.

What was Jennifer's husband Jamie Faith's cause of death?

On October 9, 2020, Faith's 49-year-old husband Jamie was gunned down and pronounced dead outside of their residence in Oak Cliff, Texas.

While Faith and Jamie were walking their dog, the latter was shot seven times by Lopez.

During Jamie's homicide investigation, it was revealed Faith had rekindled her relationship with Lopez; they were high school sweethearts.

When they reconnected earlier in 2020, Faith fabricated stories of physical abuse during her correspondence with her ex-boyfriend.

Faith further admitted that she pretended to be her husband to provoke her ex-boyfriend into killing him.

On January 11, 2021, Lopez was arrested in relation to Jamie's homicide.

The murder weapon was also recovered from Lopez's home in Cumberland Furnace, Tennessee.

On February 24 of the same year, Jennifer was arrested and charged as well.
