WICHITA, Kan. (KSNW) – In a significant legal development, a woman implicated in the deaths of two Kansas mothers entered a no-contest plea on Tuesday to multiple charges.

Tifany Adams was convicted in Texas County, Oklahoma, facing two counts each of first-degree murder, unlawful removal of a dead body, and unlawful desecration of a human corpse.
