The case took a turn when prosecutors dropped the murder charge, leading to a plea deal. Smith admitted to smothering his wife, though the exact cause of death was not confirmed. The couples recent eviction and Iriss deteriorating health factored into Smiths decision. He is now awaiting sentencing in Kentville, Nova Scotia.
