39-year-old Macon man sentenced to 20 years for stabbing wife

Emanuel Williams, Sr., pleaded guilty Tuesday to stabbing his wife in the face with a steak knife.

A man who stabbed his wife several times outside a Houston Avenue home in 2017 pleaded guilty to aggravated assault, family violence and kidnapping Tuesday.

According to the Office of the District Attorney, Emanuel Dewayne Williams, Sr., 39, was sentenced to 20 years Wednesday, with seven to serve in prison.

In March 2017, Bibb County deputies were sent to Pendleton Homes after getting multiple 911 calls about a person being cut.
