Malissa Ancona was sentenced to life after admitting a second degree murder
The wife of a Ku Klux Klan leader in the US state of Missouri admitted to shooting the journalist two years ago.
Malissa Ancona, 47, was sentenced to life after pleading guilty to second degree murder and other charges.
She had initially stated that her son, Paul Jinkerson, had perpetrated the murder, but the court said Friday that it was not the case. He is still facing a lawsuit.
Frank Ancona, a so-called "imperial sorcerer", was shot in a bedroom and his body thrown beside a river.
In an agreement with prosecutors, Ancona pleaded guilty Friday in St. Francis County District Court for second-degree murder, tampering with evidence and abandoning a corpse, the St Louis Post-Dispatch newspaper reported.
