Hartford Woman Charged in Husband’s Killing

Christine Clark, 43, has been charged with second-degree murder in the death of her husband, James Clark, 43, at their home in Hartford, New York. Court documents allege she struck him in the head with a coffee mug and cut him with a box cutter, then tried to clean up blood; she also faces evidence-tampering and weapon-possession charges. James Clark died after being found with severe injuries, and Christine Clark is being held without bail as authorities await autopsy results.
