OMAHA, Neb. (AP) - A Missouri woman pleaded no contest Wednesday for her role in the stabbing death of a Nebraska man during a botched robbery.

A Sarpy County judge then found 22-year-old Kristal R. Martin guilty of being an accessory to the June 2018 slaying of Brent Quigley in Bellevue, Nebraska, the Omaha World-Herald reported.

She is one of five people charged in Quigley’s death as part of a plan to steal drugs and money from him. Officers found him lying near the front door of his home with at least 20 stab wounds.



Christopher J. Reagan, 47, was sentenced to 100 years to life in prison after pleading no contest to second-degree murder, use of a weapon to commit a felony and conspiracy to commit robbery. Raymond T. Davis, 31, of Des Moines, Iowa, also faces life in prison after a jury found him guilty of first-degree murder, conspiracy to commit robbery and a weapons count.

Alisia Cooke, 30, has pleaded guilty to second-degree murder. Jonathan Riesgaard, 34, has pleaded guilty to being an accessory to a robbery. Both are awaiting sentencing.

Martin told police that she and Davis left Omaha after the slaying. They were arrested in Troy, Missouri.
