crime : crime : ELDERLY WOMEN FACE JAIL OVER INSURANCE KILLINGS

[+] serious ballot by UncleRandy
ACTIVE Apr 20,2008 - Fri Jan 14, 11

TWO pensioners accused of killing a pair of homeless men to collect millions of dollars in insurance payouts were convicted yesterday of conspiracy to murder.

It was a murder plot on slow burn. The two women, both in their 70s, would befriend the homeless in Hollywood, put them up, and insure their lives for millions. Then the women would cash in, dispatching their victims in staged hit and run accidents in dark alleys.
But yesterday a jury in Los Angeles found Helen Golay (photo on the right), 77, guilty of the murder of Paul Vados, 73, and Kenneth McDavid, 50. She faces the possibility of a life sentence without parole and will probably end her days in jail.
Her friend of 20 years, Olga Rutterschmidt (photo on the left), 75, was convicted of conspiracy to murder, which could lead to a 25-year prison term. The jury was to consider murder charges against Rutterschmidt on Friday.
The time delay between the murders - Vados was killed in 1999 and McDavid in 2005 - had allowed the two women to escape suspicion until two years ago when a detective overheard a colleague investigating a strikingly similar case.
But their trial, punctuated by tape recordings of the two women squabbling in jail, has exposed a murder plot reminiscent of the film Arsenic and Old Lace.
Golay, a former estate agent in Santa Monica, and Rutterschmidt, who had once owned a coffee shop with her husband, were both Hungarian-born.
“They didn’t need this money. They weren’t poor and destitute. They went out of their way to target men who had nothing,” the prosecutor said.
The jury saw a secretly recorded videotape of the two in a lockup after their arrests. Rutterschmidt berated Golay, saying her actions in taking out 23 insurance policies raised a red flag when the men died.
“It’s your fault,” Rutterschmidt told Golay. “You can’t have that many insurances. ... You were greedy. That’s the problem.”
The women claimed they were a cousin and a finance of McDavid to take out the insurance policies.
On the tape, Rutterschmidt snapped: “I was the cousin. You were the finance. Baloney.”
