Blooming Prairie woman accused in 2018 double murder jailed in Minnesota prison

Prosecutors handling the Lois Riess murder cases have agreed to have her serve the first of her life sentences in a Minnesota prison. Riess was convicted of killing her husband in March 2018 at the couple’s rural Blooming Prairie home, before fleeing to Fort Meyers Beach, Florida where she befriended 59-year old Pamela Hutchinson, who bore a resemblance to Riess, then killed her and stole her identity.
