Trial begins in case of Pennsylvania 'sugar baby' accused of killing wealthy pharmaceutical exec | Daily Mail Online
The trial of an adult entertainer accused of murdering her wealthy lover, after he broke up with her and threatened to shoot her, began in Pennsylvania on Thursday.
Testimony has begun in the case against Jennifer Morrisey, 34, who is said to have fatally shot pharmaceutical executive Michael McNew, 64, between the eyes just shy of 18 months ago.
Prosecutors argued in opening statements on Thursday that things had taken a turn for the worse in the pair's five-year relationship, during which time McNew had 'taken care' of Morrisey.
McNew was shot and killed on August 6, 2017, Matt Weintraub, Bucks County District Attorney said during a news conference at the time of Morrisey's arrest.
McNew was found dead in his Washington Cross home days later by a co-worker from his company, AbbVie Pharmaceuticals, and her daughter, the Philadelphia Inquirer reported.
Morrisey was arraigned on charges of criminal homicide, burglary, tampering with or fabricating physical evidence, and possessing instruments of crime on September 29, 2017.
[...]
Text messages found on Morrisey's phone from the night of McNew's death paint a picture of a woman engaged in violent conversation with the man who would later be found dead.
In the text exchange, McNew waffled between inviting Morrisey over and telling her he loved her, with her saying, 'I already told you that I'll be there tonight,' and McNew at one point threatening to shoot her.
DA Weintraub read more quotes from those texts at the time of Morrisey's arrest coming from her phone, including, 'Get the gun then because I'm coming,' and, 'Guess you're just going to have to shoot me.'
Others read, 'You have a choice. Touch my stuff and I cut your throat,' 'I'm gonna stab you,' and 'I'll gut you like I'm field-dressing an [expletive] deer.'
