Idaho v. Wisdom
Annotate this CaseIn November 2013, Christina Wisdom pled guilty to one count of injury to a child. That plea was based on Wisdom allowing her husband, Ronald Wisdom, to access Wisdom’s daughter, M.L., who was born in a prior marriage, despite knowing that Ronald had previously sexually abused M.L. This appeal centered on a restitution award the district court entered under Idaho Code section 19-5304. The award required Wisdom to pay $11,069.82 for counseling services for the victim of her crime. Wisdom appealed the award to the Idaho Court of Appeals, which vacated the award for lack of causation. The Supreme Court granted the State’s petition for review, and affirmed the district court.
