Andrew Menken (Sac County Case No. FECR012301),for the crimes of Extortion and Conspiracy to Commit Extortion. Specifically,during her deposition in State v. Andrew Menken , which was five days before

    Andrew Menkens trial was set to begin, defendant, who was a States witness inState v. Andrew Menken , testified that she did not conspire with Andrew Menkento extort Randy Aschinger. Previously, however, at her plea hearing, which was

    on September 24, 2013, defendant, in providing the factual basis for her guiltyplea to Conspiracy to Commit Extortion, stated that she conspired with AndrewMenken to extort Randy Aschinger. Following this affirmation to the Court, theState provided the following reason it was recommending a deferred judgmentfor defendant: I need [defendants] testimony. I mean, simply I need for her torepeat what she just said here today on the witness stand [in State v. AndrewMenken ] --- the third Defendant in this matter, who [has] yet to come to trial . Thedefendant's act (here, testifying contrary to her affirmation to Judge Bice) wasdone with specific intent to obstruct the States prosecution of Andrew Menkenfor the above-mentioned crimes.
