Former model enters not-guilty plea in murder-for-hire plot
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}A former model accused of trying to hire a hit man to kill the mother of her two stepdaughters has entered not guilty pleas in Ohio.
Tara Lambert was sentenced in 2016 to seven years in prison on a murder conspiracy count. An appeals court overturned her conviction last year, saying there was a paperwork error in her original indictment.
The Columbus Dispatch reports the 35-year-old Ashville woman entered the not guilty pleas Wednesday at her arraignment on new charges of conspiracy to commit aggravated murder.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Lambert is suing her original attorney claiming he provided ineffective counsel.
The judge in the case has allowed Lambert to remain free on a recognizance bond ahead of an April trial.
