Lori Isenberg is already in prison. She was convicted of embezzling money from the North Idaho nonprofit where she worked. Her husband Larry was found dead in Lake Coeur d’Alene around the same time.
“I was an emotional and physical wreck,” said Isenberg.

COEUR D’ALENE, Idaho Lori Isenberg, a convicted embezzler who plead guilty to the murder of her husband in February, will be sentenced Monday.
In a case that has drawn national attention, Isenberg was serving time for stealing money from a non-profit before being accused of murdering her husband, Larry.

Right around the time of his murder, Lori Isenberg was under suspicion for stealing $579,000 from the North Idaho Housing Coalition where she worked. Her daughters were implicated in the scheme, as well.
