LANCASTER, Ohio (WCMH) -- A woman will spend at least 18 years in prison after pleading guilty to a February shooting that left her son dead.

According to the Fairfield County Prosecuting Attorney's Office, Laquandra S. Williams, 44, pleaded guilty Monday to one count of murder with a three-year firearm specification, and one count of felonious assault.

The charges against Williams stem from a Feb. 18 domestic dispute in which Williams tried to stab her son, Jahaad Hughes, 21, with a kitchen knife before shooting him in the back outside a Reynoldsburg apartment.

Williams was sentenced to life in prison with the possibility of parole after 18 years.
