73-Year-Old Guilty of Killing Neighbor

EASTON, Pa. (AP) -- A judge convicted a 73-year-old woman of first-degree murder Wednesday for killing her older neighbor with 37 hammer blows to the head and sentenced her to life in prison without parole.

Kathy MacClellan declined to speak on her own behalf before receiving her sentence and rocked in her chair as the judge imposed it.

She was found guilty of attacking 84-year-old Marguerite "Tuddy" Eyer with the claw end of a hammer on Feb. 7, 2005, in a mobile home community north of Bethlehem, which is about 45 miles north of Philadelphia.

Eyer identified MacClellan as her killer before she died in the emergency room, and police testified that MacClellan's face, hair and clothing had been covered in Eyer's blood. Prosecutors did not discuss a motive.

They didn't discuss a motive???????

Well, surely thats what everyone wants to know.
 
Is a life sentance with no parole for her the same as if she had been 21 ?
Perhaps they should incarcerate her body for another 20 years after she dies ?
