Husband killer spent life insurance payout on boob job and wild parties

A WOMAN has been convicted of murdering her US Marine husband with arsenic so she could cash in on his $250,000 life insurance policy, some of which she used to have her breasts enlarged.

Prosecutors argued that Cynthia Sommer, 33, wanted a more luxurious lifestyle than she could afford on her husband’s $1,700 monthly salary and saw his military life insurance policy as a way to “set herself free”.

In addition to the breast enlargement surgery, Ms Sommer’s friends and co-workers testified, she threw wild parties and had casual sex with multiple partners in the weeks after her husband’s death and the payment of the insurance policy.
