A Jamaican woman has been sentence to 15 years in prison for using a razor to slash her American husband's wrist in an attempt to kill him after an attorney warned them they would have a 'hard time' getting her a green card.

Olivia Raimo, 30, of Jamaica, was sentenced to 15 years in prison on Thursday after accepting a plea agreement for the attempted murder of her husband Richard Raimo, 74, who she married him in 2017 to receive her permanent residence status.

She will also have to serve an additional five years in post-release supervision. 

Olivia slit Richard's wrist with a 'straight razors' in the bathroom of their home in New Rochelle, New York, in January 2020 after 'wedging him between the toilet seat and a wall,' the Westchester County District Attorney's Office said. 

When his home health aide arrived to the residence, Olivia refused to allow them inside. 

Olivia Raimo, 30, has been sentenced to 15 years in prison for the attempted murder of her husband Richard Raimo, 74, after she pinned him between the toilet and the wall and slit his wrist in their New Rochelle apartment (pictured) in January 2020.

They were told they would more than likely fail their marriage test, jeopardizing her chances at US citizenship 

The health aide, who did not recognize Olivia, then called the police, who entered the home after hearing the victim 'screaming from the bathroom.' 

He was transported to Jacobi Hospital in the Bronx and was bleeding profusely from his wrist.
Richard underwent two surgeries to 'reattach the tendons in his arms' and he lost 'all function in his hand,' the DA's Office reported. 

Olivia, who is not a citizen of the United States, was arrested on February 11, 2020, following a police investigation and it was later discovered she attempted to kill her husband after they were told they would have a 'hard time passing their marriage interview.' 

The pair married in 2017 and had met with an attorney to prepare for an interview with the US turkish citizenship lawyer and Immigration Services to 'demonstrate that their marriage was legitimate.' 

He was taken to Jacobi Hospital in the Bronx, where he underwent two surgeries to reattach the tendons to his hand.

He lost all function in his hand

In order to apply for US citizenship through a spouse, applicants have to be living lawfully in the US for three years. 

In addition, applicants must be of 'good moral character' and have a basic understanding of English and American government. 

Receiving citizenship in the US is a several step process that takes years to complete that includes: fingerprinting, photo identification, interviews, and taking an oath to allegiance to the country.
