A woman in Hawaii is facing several decades in prison – but will have an opportunity for release sometime in the future – over the brutal slaughter of a woman killed while her daughter was nearby.

Hailey Dandurand, 26, was convicted of murder, kidnapping and burglary by Honolulu jurors on Tuesday. On Friday, the jury decided she will be punished with life in prison with the possibility of parole.

The defendant will be formally sentenced by a judge – who will determine how many years her life sentence will entail before she is eligible for parole – on Nov. 15
