Insecure Angela Marinucci, 18, (pictured bottom right) and Ricky 'I'm no Prize' Smyrnes (pictured top right) met Laurie Piper at a suburban Pittsburgh bus station on February 11, 2010--the same day Jennifer Daugherty's lifeless corpse was discovered. The gruesome twosome told Piper that Marinucci: "wanted to kill Jennifer because she did not want to share Ricky." Daugherty, 30, was found bound and stabbed in the throat and chest in a parking lot. Her body had been dumped trash bin.  Piper told court--Marinucci is on trial for first-degree murder in the sickening slaying--that the accused was the ringleader and she
