Lady Gets 10 Years in Double Murder Plea Deal May 23, 2014 - A 20-year-old Illinois lady has been allowed a 10-year jail sentence to decreased charges in a twofold murder case in return for her declaration against her three co-litigants. Alissa Massaro conceded to four crime accusations regarding the passings of Terrance Rankins and Eric Glover in 2013. She confessed to two checks of theft and two tallies of camouflage of a crime. Investigators said that Massaro and her three co-respondents - Joshua Miner, 25; Adam Landerman, 20; and Bethany McKee, 19 - attracted the casualties to Massaros house in January 2013. Rankins and Glover, both 22 years of age, were choked and they were burglarized of the cash and medications found on their dead bodies. Wanted to Dismember Bodies In past articulations, investigators said that Massaro and Miner insensitively played computer games and celebrated after the homicides. Police reports additionally uncovered that they wanted to dissect the casualties bodies before discarding them. In spite of the fact that the homicides occurred at Massaros home, 40 miles southwest of Chicago in Joliet, investigator Dan Walsh told the court that the genuine killings occurred outside of Massaros nearness.
