Kathleen Dorsett
Wow, this woman and her parents are all responsible in the killing of this man. What the heck is wrong with this family? I hope justice is served.
An elementary school teacher was arrested, charged and convicted of murder related charges after she conspired with her parents to murder her former husband, according to court proceedings in New Jersey.
Now, a court sentenced her to jail.
The jury saw images of the body of Stephen Moore, and they also heard inconsistent statements from the three defendants, Kathleen Dorsett and her parents, who were sentenced to a combined total of 110 years in prison for the 2010 death of Moore.
She and her parents Thomas and Lesley Dorsett, had earlier pleaded guilty to charges in the death of Moore, and she and her mother also pleaded guilty to conspiring to murder Moore's mother in order to block her from testifying against them during a custody trial.
The murder plot arose during the custody trial of Kathleen's 20-month-old daughter Elizabeth, according to prosecutors.
When Stephen Moore returned his daughter to her mother's home, Kathleen Dorsett lured him to the back of the residence where her father jumped out from behind bushes and hit his head with a metal object. Then, Moore choked him with a rope before dumping his body in the car trunk of her mother, according to prosecutors.
