LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — On Monday, Dec. 9, it is anticipated that murder charges against Margaret Rudin, also known as the Black Widow of Las Vegas, could be dismissed.

On Wednesday, Dec. 4, Rudin's legal team received a filing from the Clark County District Attorney's Office that they would not oppose the conviction being formally vacated and the dismissal of all murder charges against her.

She is currently litigating against the State of Nevada for wrongful incarceration.

Margaret Rudin was convicted of killing her millionaire husband Ron Rudin in 1994 and spoke on TV for the first time since her release from prison.
