Md. woman gets 5 years for bridal veil attack
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}A Maryland woman is going to prison for breaking into her neighbor's house wearing nothing but a bridal skirt and veil.
A judge sentenced 33-year-old Melissa Wagaman on Thursday to five years. A jury had convicted her of second-degree assault, fourth-degree burglary and reckless endangerment for the February attack that injured Aaron Parrott.
Wagaman testified at trial that a combination of cold medicine and marijuana apparently made her hallucinate that she was getting married and that her mother was locked in her neighbor's basement.

Wagaman apologized to the Parrotts during Thursday's hearing.
