CO CO - Kelsey Berreth, 29, Woodland Park, Teller County, 22 Nov 2018 - #34 *ARREST*

[NoeticSoul]

I have a feeling PF's attorney has already gotten wind of this plea deal and has let him know. Feb 19 should be interesting...

It's a great way to start a Monday IMO More (people) dominoes in this game are about to fall too!

Nurse in missing-mom case of Kelsey Berreth to plead guilty

Krystal Lee, 32, is scheduled to appear in a Colorado courtroom this week to enter a plea deal with prosecutors, according to two of Lee's relatives who spoke anonymously because the deal hasn't been publicly announced. Family members said Lee has been cooperating with investigators, who have been looking into allegations Lee may have disposed of evidence.

It's not yet clear what charge or charges Lee is expected to plead guilty to, or whether she'd face jail time. Attempts to reach Lee's attorney have been unsuccessful.

A spokeswoman for District Attorney Dan May would not confirm or comment on any potential plea, but she did confirm that Lee has a court date set for Friday, Feb. 8, in Teller County.

"This case is under seal," said Lee Richards, a spokeswoman for Colorado's 4th Judicial District Attorney's office.

Patrick Frazee was arrested in December and charged with Berreth's murder and three counts of solicitation to commit murder. He has not entered a plea.

I normally never ever say this because I have been wrong on too many occasions. But this one time and one time only Im gonna say it.

I knew it. It was the only thing that made sense. Plea deal of some sort.

I think you're right.

I'm wondering when this news was found out, because it's just 8:15 a.m. ET. Courts/offices aren't open yet in CO yet.

I am very interested to see what she will say she knows.

Yes, though I tend to think the business of ranching has more adult children living with their parents (on the farm) in order to carry on the family business. It benefits all financially. I’ve visited many ranches, and saw grown daughters and sons living at the family ranches, carrying on many of the duties that their parents had grown weary of doing. When a potential spouse came into the picture...that is where the fork in the road splits. Of course it wouldn’t be what most of us what choose to do but I can understand why some in that profession do. Perhaps PF was SF’s only hope of the family business continuing and she sold it to him as such..?

Does he own it? I don't remember that. I am very familiar with the situation you describe, and it can be normal. But we know PF is not normal. Something has made him this way. I can't tell if his mom controls him, including dictating who he will marry, or if he uses his mom as an excuse to every female he meets. I think SF holds the ranch over PF's head to control him and he resents it. MOO.

They have probably been working on this for a while, confirming what she told authorities and what she could be facing. No doubt she'll probably testify against him as part of the plea deal. Waiting to hear what charges she was facing.
MOO

Yes it will be interesting for sure.

I agree that LE most likely took their time and did their due diligence to validate everything she was saying before allowing this deal to go forward. Nobody wants another Karla Homolka case.

I might have missed this but is she under arrest?

On the local news here it implied (imo) that she came voluntarily with her attorney. eta They say it's at least 1 charge and a plea deal.

Thanks NS,,, been checking in here and there so was just wondering if an arrest came with this new revelation.

 

[MyTinkieGirl]

Wonder if PF is watching TV this morning.

Maybe they pulled the 'ol "Casey Anthony". Took him somewhere where a TV is and watch his reaction when he sees it broadcast. Maybe an oh, chit moment?

Oh that would be wonderful if they did That was priceless to watch!

I'll put a few bucks on a tampering with evidence charge (???)
The phone?

 

[Hatfield]

I am already anticipating the trial of PF and the battle between lawyers when/if she gets on the stand.

I am hoping for accessory to murder or more. Just wishful thinking I'm sure, but one can wish Can't wait til Friday!!!

 

[NCmama]

I'm glad she's charged with something. I don't completely believe that she feared for her life. She lives hundreds of miles away in another state and went to CO to help him. But at the same time, PF is clearly capable of making someone disappear. She could have gone to the police instead of helping though.

 

[LovesPeace2]

Well hell ya about time they say something. I wonder with the case being sealed how much they will release to the public Friday.

 

[Mauig’ma]

Why didn’t she come forward Before Kelsey had to die is my question? Of course she’s going to plea a deal to save her own skin now after the fact. She deserves time in jail imo. I hope she gets some time to think about what she could have prevented in the first place. Moo

Even if docs remain sealed, this hearing will be open to the public, so if anything is discussed, it will be reported.
There is also a possibility that this can get postponed again.

Well, if the original charge is Accessory to Murder than I would think that would be a pretty good deal. For her anyway.
Maybe a lawyer could tell us if there is another accessory charge that would be less time, like accessory to a felony or something, just not murder.
If it's just tampering with evidence it would seem that they are letting her off too easily. Imo
