Pasco woman Marta Miller, was facing a charge of murder in the stabbing death of Bobby Burgess. Miller ended up taking a plea deal last week to avoid trial.

FRANKLIN COUNTY, Wash. – A Pasco woman, who was set to go to trial in the 2021 killing of a man at a trailer park, has taken a plea deal and avoided going in front of a jury.
Marta Miller was charged with murder in the killing of Bobby Burgess at the Riviera Trailer Village back in August of 2021. Miller ended up pleading guilty to manslaughter after the prosecution offered her a plea deal last week.
According to Senior Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Maureen Astley, Miller will be sentenced on December 20 at 9 a.m. She is facing more than six years in prison if she is given the harshest penalty.
Prosecutors, Miller’s defense team and the judge met last week for a pre-trial hearing.
According to the prosecution, Miller went to the trailer park that day to confront Burgess over a car that belonged to Miller.
The defense tried to claim Miller acted in self-defense when she killed Burgess.
