Australian not guilty of cling film murder
Sydney - An Australian woman accused of suffocating her father with a pillow after binding him to his bed with cling wrap was exonerated by a Sydney court Monday.
Daniela Beltrame, 55, was found not guilty of murdering her 70-year-old father despite testimony from her daughter.
Romina Beltrame, 29, told the court that when she tried to free her grandfather her mother said: "What are you doing? It's taken me hours to Glad Wrap him."
Beltrame had earlier been found guilty of forging her father's will so she would become the sole beneficiary of his estate and of coercing a witness by persuading Loretta Appleyard, her second daughter, to give false evidence at an inquest into the death. (dpa)
