(AP) – A suburban Kansas City attorney is going on trial for
murder in the 2010 deaths of her millionaire father and his girlfriend.
The Kansas City Star reports that jury selection is expected to begin Monday
in southern Missouri’s Laclede County in the trial of 48-year-old Susan Van Note
of Lee’s Summit.
Van Note is accused of a late-night October 2010 attack on 67-year-old William
Van Note and 59-year-old Sharon Dickson at the couple’s Lake of the Ozarks
house.
Prosecutors say Susan Van Note forged her father’s signature to a document to
have his hospital ventilator shut off four days after the attack. Authorities
also allege Susan Van Note wanted her father’s millions and was angry that he
had named Dickson to get the bulk of his estate.
