A 37-year-old Wapakoneta, Ohio, woman who divorced her U.S. State Department researcher husband, the father of their three daughters, and started a relationship with a man she met in South Africa is going to federal prison for 40 years after she “ambushed and injected” her ex with animal tranquilizer and killing him after he arrived to exchange custody of the children in 2022.

Amanda Hovanec apparently didn’t have much of an explanation as to why she poisoned 36-year-old Timothy Hovanec on April 24, 2022. The Lima News reported that Hovanec acknowledged at her sentencing hearing Tuesday that “it comes down to me being selfish.”

According to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Ohio, the crime, also implicating Amanda’s mother Anita Green and Anthony Theodorou, Amanda’s new boyfriend from South Africa, occurred in the course of an ongoing child visitation dispute amid the divorce.
