Wilmer had been charged with first-degree murder in the stabbing death of April Johnson, 17, of Dubuque in September 2005. Johnson was six months pregnant when she died. Wilmer, dressed in a suit and blouse on Tuesday, blotted a few tears from her cheeks after the verdict was read and thanked the jurors as they left the courtroom. Wilmer had confronted the prospect of life in prison for her role in John- son’s death. She instead faces up to five years in prison for involuntary manslaughter and up to 25 years on the other charge. “We know Claricia Wilmer did not murder anyone … She’s a good person,” said defense attorney Todd Klapatauskas. “Justice would not have been served to have her in prison for the rest of her life.” Wilmer was one of four peo- ple arrested for Johnson’s death. The other three females — including two 14-year-olds — had their murder charges dropped in November and pleaded to lesser charges. Last week, Wilmer testified that she drove the three other females to confront Johnson after Johnson’s family allegedly assaulted Wilmer’s cousin. All four females testi- fied they did not see anyone stab Johnson, though Wilmer testified her juvenile cousin — Alberta Wilmer — placed a knife between them in the car as they drove away from Johnson’s body. The statement contradicted previous testimony from Alberta Wilmer, who said Claricia Wilmer wielded the weapon inside the vehicle. The two-week trial was held in Scott County District Court, because a change of venue was ordered to counter pretrial publicity. The jury, consisting of eight women and four men, reached the verdict midmorning after four hours of deliberation that began Monday. Jurors had several options, including a conviction of first- degree murder, second-degree murder, voluntary manslaugh- ter, involuntary manslaughter, assault, or acquittal. Testimony and other evi- dence warranted a murder conviction, “but we have no qualms that the jury did everything they could,” said Assistant Dubuque County Attorney Chris Corken. Corken said Johnson “was a completely innocent bystander of whatever ugliness was going on that night, and she did not deserve this.” Wilmer was transported to the Dubuque County Jail. She will be held without bail, pending her sentencing.
