Last March, a judge put a Madison County man in prison for six-and-a-half years for trying to poison his wife of almost 40 years by putting rat poison in her coffee. Now, there is a chance he will be released from prison soon.
Debra Cain plans to keep showing up for court hearings in the case, knowing the man she was married to for 39 years, the man who tried to poison her, gets a crack at freedom in August, less than six months after he was sentenced for the crime. “I don’t want him out,” she said.

William Cain, 56, pled guilty to second-degree manslaughter after he confessed to putting rat poison in her coffee. Debra says it was that total disregard for her life, that she lives in fear even knowing he’s in jail, for now. “I still have nightmares every night and I’m still looking over my shoulder,” she said.
A judge sentenced William Cain to six-and-a-half years in prison, but because of his credit for the 293 days he spent in jail before his guilty plea, Cain can go before the parole board in August. Just the thought of him going free makes Debra sick to her stomach. “I just truly don’t know what i’ll do,” she said. “I will cross that bridge when i have to. Emotionally, I couldn’t handle it at all.”
On Monday, Debra Cain will ask the parole board not to grant her ex-husband an early release.
