Canton woman sentenced for running over her husband in Warren parking lot
A Canton Township woman who pleaded no contest to running over her then-husband with her SUV in a parking lot has been sentenced to 18 months of probation, prosecutors said.
Prosecutors say 39-year-old Alaina Fain drove over her then-husband with her SUV in a Warren parking lot on June 13, 2025.
Fain pleaded no contest during a pre-trial hearing on March 9 to assault with a dangerous weapon and domestic violence.
In addition to serving 18 months of probation, Fain has to complete a mental health assessment and a batterer's intervention program, according to prosecutors, and she cannot possess any weapons or be within 500 feet of her ex-husband.
"It is important to remember that sentencing ultimately rests in the hands of the court. In this case, the judge exercised that authority by ordering probation, a mental health assessment, and participation in a batterer's intervention program, measures designed not only to hold the offender accountable, but to provide a pathway toward rehabilitation and avoid recidivism," said Macomb County Prosecutor Peter Lucido.
