Crampton Brophy has been in custody since her September 2018 arrest. Her sentencing has been scheduled for June 13.
PORTLAND, Ore. — A jury in Portland has convicted a self-published romance novelist — who once wrote an essay titled “How to Murder Your Husband” — of fatally shooting her husband four years ago.
Crampton Brophy displayed no visible reaction Wednesday inside the crowded Multnomah County courtroom.Prosecutors told jurors that Crampton Brophy was motivated by money problems and a life insurance policy. She owned the same make and model of gun used to kill her husband and was seen on surveillance camera footage driving to and from the culinary institute, court exhibits and court testimony showed.
Defense attorneys said the gun parts were inspiration for Crampton Brophy’s writing and suggested someone else might have killed Brophy during a robbery gone wrong. Crampton Brophy testified during the trial that her presence near the culinary school on the day of her husband’s death was mere coincidence and that she had parked in the area to work on her writing.
