SANTA ANA, Calif. — A 26-year-old mother of two young children was sentenced Friday to two terms of life in prison without the possibility of parole for her role in a plot to kill a wealthy couple for their yacht.
Jennifer Deleon was convicted last year of two counts of first-degree murder and murder for financial gain.
She was not on board in 2004, when the victims were tied to an anchor and thrown over the side of their 55-foot yacht, the "Well Deserved."
Authorities said, however, that Deleon helped her then-husband with the murders by using their infant daughter to gain the trust of victims Tom and Jackie Hawks. Deleon was also pregnant at the time. Full Story - Yachts International - Newport Cigarettes - PetCareRx
