Girl Guilty Of Reduced Charge In Father's Death
In Cheyenne Wyoming a 17 year old girl Deborah Jahnke was found guilty of aiding and abetting manslaughter in the death of her father Richard C Jahnke 38. Her brother Richard Jahnke 16 was found guilty of voluntary manslaughter last month. The nine woman three man jury deliberated over six hours. The prosecutor argued a premeditated murder by the brother with Deborah encouraging. The defense said the children were trapped in a dysfunctional family. The verdict spared Deborah from life sentences she faced on a higher charge. The mother Maria Jahnke fainted after the verdict and was cared for by a doctor.
