A former principal who stole school funds and used the money to hire a friend to murder his pregnant girlfriend was sentenced to two consecutive life terms in prison.
Jocelyn Peters was 31 weeks pregnant with Cornelius Green's child when she was fatally shot in 2016, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office in the Eastern District of Missouri. She was in bed and working on baby shower invitations when she was killed.
Both Green and his killer friend, 46-year-old Phillip Cutler, were convicted on charges of conspiracy to commit murder-for-hire and murder-for-hire. Cutler was also sentenced to two consecutive life terms in prison for what the judge called the "most heinous" crime he had seen in his career.
