Indianapolis, IN – According to the court documents, the 52-year-old wife, later identified as EIizabeth, was sentenced to 90 years behind bars after jury found her guilty of murder and conspiracy to commlt murder.

During the trial, the 52-year-old wife claimed that she is innocent. She reportedly said that she ‘never asked anyone to murder her husband’. But, prosecutors claim the woman reportedly spoke with her boyfriend right before the murder.
