Karrie Neurauter pleads guilty to helping Daddy kill mother

A school student charged with helping her father kill her mother was agreed to testify against him as part of a plea bargain.

Karrie Neurauter, 20, says she drove her dad Lloyd Neurauter, 45, to her mother’s home in Corning, New York on August 27 and disconnected electronic devices in the home to conceal his presence.

While Lloyd strangled his ex-wife, 46-year-old Michele Neurauter, Karrie maintains she distracted her 14-year-old sister.  

She then helped him create the scene look like a suicide and lied to police.
