Kaleigh Lynn Fryer and Jerry Jerone Chiles Jr. are charged with the stabbing death of Lewis Keith Fryer, 42.
"She said she'd leave the back door open for me and stuff and then she showed me where the knives are at," said Chiles as he testified at Kaleigh Fryer's preliminary hearing. "She said, please, please can I do it."
Chiles has struck a deal with prosecutors to plead guilty to the murder in exchange for his testimony against Fryer and a sentence of life in prison with the possibility of parole. He could have faced the death penalty.
On May 13, Police found Lewis Fryer dead in his Guthrie home at 401 W Orbit after his daughter called 911. He had been stabbed in the back and the neck.
Chiles was arrested later that day at Crossroads Mall and questioned by authorities. Chiles admitted killing Lewis Fryer and implicated Kaleigh Fryer in the plot, according to court records.
The preliminary hearing will continue on Aug. 30 with Kaleigh Fryer's attorney having a chance to question Chiles.
