Molly Martens (40) and her father, Tom Martens (73), have been sentenced for the manslaughter of Limerick man, Jason Corbett.
As reported by the Irish Examiner, the pair will now each serve between seven months and two years after the time they have already spent in prison was taken into consideration.
It is understood there will be no appeal.
The Martens were originally convicted of second-degree murder, but the convictions were later quashed following an appeal.
The pair subsequently agreed a plea deal, accepting the charges of voluntary manslaughter in relation to Mr Corbett's death.
They had already spent 44 months in prison for the earlier convictions.
Molly Martens' late husband, Mr Corbett, was found dead in his home in North Carolina in the US in August 2015.
The court previously heard Mr Corbett sustained extreme injuries, having been beaten with a brick and a baseball bat.
Mr Corbett's two children were both read victim impact statements to Judge David Hall.
Mr Corbett's daughter Sarah (17) said Molly Martens had taken everything from her.
Ms Corbett added that Molly Martens had beaten her and her brother Jack, and coached them as to what to say to help her case.
"I was a piece in her chessboard," Ms Corbett told the court.
