WICHITA, Kan. (AP) -- A Wichita woman scheduled to go on trial this week has pleaded guilty to killing her boyfriend, who was shot and pushed out of a car at a hospital.

Thirty-five-year-old Wendy Shepherd pleaded guilty Tuesday to second-degree reckless murder and aggravated battery in the June 2010 death of 30-year-old Jose Vicente Galan-Delgado.

Police say Galan-Delgado was shot at a home then driven to Via Christi St. Joseph Hospital. He was shot again and then pushed out of the car.

KFDI reports (http://bit.ly/yXuLC2) Shepherd originally claimed the killing was in self-defense because her boyfriend had beaten her.

Shepherd is scheduled to be sentenced April 4.
