(CNN) — A woman convicted in the 2002 kidnapping of Utah teenager Elizabeth Smart pleaded guilty in the attempted kidnapping of Smart’s cousin a month later, court officials said Monday.
In exchange for Wanda Barzee’s plea of guilty but mentally ill to one count of conspiracy to commit aggravated kidnapping, prosecutors dropped state charges against her in Smart’s abduction, said Nancy Volmer, spokeswoman for Utah state courts.
