A North Idaho man convicted in the death of his wife more than 15 years ago is expected to face sentencing on Tuesday.
Stephen Lott’s sentencing is set for 1:30 p.m. in Sandpoint.
Lott entered an Alford plea in July to amended charges of voluntary manslaughter and failing to report a death, according to Idaho court records.
Under the terms of the plea, Lott did not admit wrongdoing but conceded he could be convicted if the case went before a jury. The pleas, though, will not be regarded different than guilty pleas during his sentencing.
