Felbaum has been released from prison and is speaking out after more than a decade behind bars.
In 2002, Felbaum was convicted of involuntary manslaughter in the death of her husband, James, who died two days after a castration operation in their Marion Twp. mobile home.
"I loved him. I still do," said Felbaum.
"Did you have anything to do with his death?" asked Earle.
"No, I did not have anything to do with his death. My husband died from complications of a drug overdose, not complications of any surgery. I did not kill my husband. My husband was not laying there bleeding. You know it's not something you die from. It's a minor surgery.
Felbaum said her husband began the surgery because he didn't want testosterone. When he ran into problems, she stepped in. Felbaum said she had performed the surgery once before on her first husband.
