A Los Angeles judge today sentenced Helen Golay, 77 and Olga Rutterschmidt, 75, to life in prison without the possibility of parole for killing two homeless men in staged hit-and-run accidents to collect $2.8 million in life insurance. The two women were convicted in April on two counts of murder and conspiracy to murder for financial gain in the killings of Kenneth McDavid, 50, and Paul Vados, 73, both pictured left. Times staff writer Victoria Kim reports more on the trial.
