Wife gets 6 years for chemical threat

PHILADELPHIA (AP) - June 3, 2008 Carol Anne Bond is also getting five years of supervised release, during which time the 36-year-old Lansdale woman must have no contact with the victim. She also must pay $9,000 restitution and a $2,000 fine.

Bond, who was sentenced Tuesday, used chemicals stolen from the lab where she worked in the attack. She was charged under a federal chemical-weapon statute aimed at terrorists. That's a tactic her lawyer criticized, saying the law can now be used for someone who throws Ajax in a moment of anger.

But a federal judge previously upheld the charges.

Bond has been in prison since her arrest last June.
