An indictment said in October 2022, Jamie Waterman helped his wife Amber Waterman after she kidnapped Ashley Bush, knowing his wife had committed a crime.

Jamie's plea change comes hours after Amber Waterman was sentenced to two life in prison sentences without the possibility of parole for her role in the kidnapping and subsequent murder.

His sentencing has yet to be announced.
