"Dentist's African safari ends in life sentence and $15M penalties for wife's murder"

Larry Rudolph, a wealthy dentist, has been sentenced to life in prison for the murder of his wife during an African safari. The judge also imposed over $15 million in financial penalties, including restitution, fines, and property forfeiture. Rudolph was convicted of mail fraud for cashing in insurance policies worth nearly $5 million as he began a new life with his girlfriend. Prosecutors allege that Rudolph shot his wife and staged the scene to look like an accident, intending to live a lavish retirement with the insurance money. His girlfriend, Lori Milliron, was sentenced to 17 years in prison as an accessory.
