Shocking! Dad Manipulates Foster Daughter to Murder His Wife to Hide Their Secret S*x Affair (Photo)

 

A 17-year-old girl who was having a hot affair with her dad has shown she could do anything it takes to be with the cheating dad. The girl named Sabrina took the life of his dad's wife to keep their affair a secret and to prove her love for the dad. 

 

Lingering glances across the breakfast table, illicit kisses and stolen moments behind closed doors were what characterized the relationship that later ended in murder. She was prompted by the dad to do it.

 

The Mirror reports that Kevin Knoefel and Sabrina Zunich struggled to keep their affair secret from Kevin’s wife, Lisa. It was made even harder because his lover was sharing the same home as the married couple.

 

While Lisa had no idea of the love affair between father and daughter, her step-daughter Sabrina was enjoy a hot affair with Lisa's husband under her nose.

 

On paper, Kevin, 43, was Sabrina’s dad. He should have protected her but, instead, he manipulated her into killing for him.  Kevin and Lisa lived in Willoughby Hills, Ohio, and had been married for six years.

 

Lisa was a sex-crimes social worker, and known for being compassionate. Kevin was a long distance lorry driver. He was stepfather to Lisa’s 13-year-old daughter from her first marriage, and together they had a biological daughter, who was three.

 

In 2011, the couple fostered troubled teen Sabrina. When her dad died, her grandmother couldn’t handle her and she’d gone into care.

 

 

At the Knoefel’s house, she started to study hard at school and was no trouble for her teachers. However, she began to love Kevin so much that the pair began a secret affair and spend mor time together without Lisa's knowledge and by March 2012, they were in a sexual relationship.

 

The twisted liar and pervert of a dad she had promised her to divorce Lisa and marry her. She being a young girl, believed the lie which never was fulfiled.

Then he told her he didn’t want to lose his three-year-old daughter in a custody battle. Lisa needed to be out of the picture.

‘She’s worth more dead than alive,’ he told Sabrina, revealing there were life insurance policies worth over £485,000.

 

Kevin talked about hiring a hit man, then told Sabrina the only way they could be together was if she killed Lisa. He threatened to kill himself if she didn’t.

 

Records show Kevin and Sabrina sent almost 1,500 texts to each other, over 15 days.

 

Kevin also picked out a knife from the kitchen then showed Sabrina how to plunge it into Lisa and twist it.

 

Having planned out the murder after twisting his own daughter's head, Kevin led Sabrina on. In the early hours of November 16, 2012, Kevin was out working when Sabrina went into Lisa’s bedroom wearing a ski mask over her face.

 

She clutched a 10-inch serrated kitchen knife in her hand. Lisa woke up to find Sabrina brutally stabbing her over and over.

 

Her oldest daughter ran in, after hearing her mother’s screams, and tried to pull Sabrina off – but she couldn’t stop her.

 

Lisa’s three-year-old was hiding in the wardrobe as her mum screamed and begged for her life.

 

The oldest daughter dialled 911. ‘My mum’s going to die!’ she screamed.

 

According to the Mirror, When the police arrived, they found Sabrina covered in blood, still holding the knife.

 

Lisa, 41, was pronounced dead at the scene. She had 178 stab wounds on her body.

With Sabrina in custody on a £465,000 bail, police struggled to understand why a young girl would murder with such rage. Meanwhile, Kevin quickly cashed in on the life insurance.

 

He took flying lessons and bought new cars and guns – still living in the house where his wife had been slaughtered. He even had it remodelled.

 

For a while, he believed his foster daughter had taken the fall. But after six months, Sabrina made a deal and told police about her relationship with Kevin and the plan he’d concocted.

 

 

In August 2013, Kevin was arrested and charged with sexual battery and conspiracy to commit murder.

 

When he went to trial in June this year, Sabrina’s evidence against him sealed his fate. He was found guilty and sentenced to life in prison. Kevin declined to speak and later insisted he’d appeal. 

 

In September, Sabrina pleaded guilty to aggravated murder and, as part of her deal, she knew she faced life in prison with a chance at parole after 30 years. She took the stand and said her intimate relationship with Kevin had started when he asked her for a massage.

 

 

She said he was a foster dad when they were in public and a lover when they were alone.

 

When asked why she’d killed Lisa she said, ‘Because I was doing what I was told to do.’ When asked who was coercing her, she said, ‘Kevin’. Sabrina claimed she feared he’d commit suicide if she didn’t go through with it.

 

Sabrina, now 19, sobbed as she was sentenced. ‘I want to say how sorry I am for all those I hurt,’ she said.

 

Judge Richard L. Collins Jr said Sabrina deserved life without parole but she had helped to convict Kevin and that went in her favour.

 

‘The gruesome, shocking and revolting nature of the crime was among the worst I’ve seen. The victim was screaming for help, begging the defendant to stop,’ he said.

 

Many wondered whether Sabrina, a vulnerable girl, would have flourished instead of being manipulated into becoming a killer, if she’d gone to a different foster home.

 

But the true victim was never forgotten. Lisa took in a teenager believing she could change her life. Instead, Sabrina stole hers.
