Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg’s office did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Mason Herring was sentenced by state District Judge Andrea Beall.Catherine Herring told authorities her husband in March 2022 began lecturing her on hydration and offering water. She said she became severely ill after drinking from the first cup that appeared cloudy, which her husband explained was perhaps the result of the cup or water pipes being dirty.Catherine Herring became suspicious and began refusing multiple other drinks her husband offered. She later found in the trash packaging for a drug that contained misoprostol, a medicine used to induce abortion.She also gave police videos from hidden cameras she installed at her home where her husband was no longer living. One of them showed him mixing a substance in one of her drinks, Catherine Herring said.Mason Herring’s attorney, Dan Codgell, called the plea deal and sentence reasonable.“It’s a sad situation and Mason has accepted his responsibility,” Cogdell said.
