Widow Held In Husband Slaying
The widow Nelle Lassiter faces murder charges in the fatal shooting and beating of her husband at a field near Willow Run Airport. Prosecutors say Lassiter offered $300 to two accomplices and that motive was money from the victim’s will and estate, valued around $107000 with a $50000 home. Lassiter and co defendant Watson are linked by state police Lt. Howard Whaley, and a plea by Jones aided the case. The couple, longtime Detroit transplants from Murray Kentucky, had 19 years of marriage.
