Larissa Schuster, pictured above, a biochemist of Clovis, California, was sentenced May 16 to life in jail without parole by Fresno County Superior Court.

The 47-year-old woman was convicted in December of killing Timothy Schuster by knocking him out and stuffing him into a vat of acid - possibly while still alive in 2003. She was accused of committing for financial gain as the couple was in the middle of a fierce divorce battle after nearly 20 years of marriage.

Testifying before the judge, Kristin, Larissa and Timothy  Schuster's adult daughter, said she now felt safer after her mother was to be locked up in the prison.

"I've been living for five years not knowing if I would have to worry for my own safety. In your quest to become a dominating power freak, you became your own demon. You have hurt me for so many years and probably smiled inside, but look who's smiling now." Kristin Schuster said.
