PORTAGE, Wis. (AP) -- A woman's statements to police about a torture and death case in Portage may be used at her murder trial.

Circuit Judge Alan White says his review shows Candace Clark wasn't impaired by a lack of sleep, food or medication, and the questioning by a Portage detective was proper.

White's eight-page decision denied Clark's motion seeking to rule out the use of those statements when she goes on trial July 7Th.

Charges against the 24-year-old Clark and 26-year-old Michael Sisk include first-degree intentional homicide, hiding a corpse and child abuse.

Clark contended at a motions hearing last week that she was confused from a lack of diabetes medication, food and water when she gave statements to police after her arrest.
