FARMINGTON — Kristine Nicole Biggs, the woman who was shot in the eye by a Morgan County Sheriff's deputy in South Weber in November ,pleaded guilty to two charges last week in 2nd District Court.
Biggs was shot in the eye by the deputy after she led officers on a 32-mile chase that started in Morgan County and ended in Davis County.
On Thursday, Biggs entered guilty pleas to third-degree felony failure to stop at the command of a police officer and class-C misdemeanor driving under the influence of alcohol. In a plea deal, prosecutors agreed to dismiss two third-degree felony counts of aggravated assault, having an open container in a vehicle, using license plates registered to another vehicle and failure to register a vehicle, all class C misdemeanors.
Her plea last week was a reversal of her not guilty pleas to all relevant charges in a Dec. 25 hearing, when she appeared in court wearing an eye patch.
A sentencing hearing is set for Feb. 25.
The Davis County Attorney's Office is reviewing the shooting.
Biggs was released from the hospital a few days after the shooting.
