Timeline

1972

Stacey Ann Lannert (born May 28, 1972) is an American woman convicted of the murder of her father, Tom Lannert, when she was 18 years old.

She testified that he had sexually abused her since she was eight years old.

Sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole, she served 18 years.

Stacey Lannert was born in St. Louis, Missouri in 1972, the daughter of Deb Underwood and Thomas Lannert.

She has said that she was close to her father and he made her feel special, but he was drinking to excess and started sexually abusing her when she was eight, and raped her at nine.

Her parents divorced when she was young.

Although she tried to tell her mother and a babysitter about her father's rapes, she did not have the language to make them understand, and he had threatened her to keep her quiet.

Her sister Christy, two years younger, has said their father physically abused and beat her from when she was in first grade, becoming especially violent when drinking.

Stacey Lannert went to live with her mother, then in Guam, six months before the murder.

Her sister Christy begged her to return, and Lannert tried to persuade her father to let Christy live with her and her mother.

He would not let her go.

At the age of 18, in the town of St. John, Missouri, Lannert shot her father twice while he was sleeping on a sofa.

After confessing to killing him, she said that he had repeatedly raped and abused her as a child, threatening her so she would maintain secrecy.

She said that, based on fears for her sister, she had decided to kill him to stop him.

1990

She testified that on July 4, 1990, she and her sister got home late, entering the house via a basement window at approximately 4:15–4:30a.m. Seeing a rifle, she decided to kill her father.

Finding her father asleep on the sofa, she shot him.

This shot broke his collarbone and startled him awake.

In fear, Stacey closed her eyes and shot again.

The next day, she consulted with an adult friend, who encouraged her and helped her to dispose of the murder weapon.

She called the police, initially pretending to have found her father dead on the sofa upon returning home, but then confessed the murder to Lt.Tom Schulte, saying it was because of the years of abuse she had suffered.

Stacey Lannert was charged with first degree murder and other felonies.

Lannert's lawyer offered the defense of insanity or mental defect after his attempt to use the "battered spouse syndrome" in her defense.

In a pre-trial ruling, the court limited mention of "battered spouse syndrome" but allowed the defendant to make "an offer of proof of self-defense".

The St. Louis County prosecutor, Bob McCulloch, never called Schulte to testify, although he was the first official to talk with Lannert and had years of experience with sexual abuse victims.

The prosecutors alleged that she murdered her father because she wanted his money.

Lannert claimed that her father had sexually abused her from the age of eight.

She said although she had reported the abuse to her guidance counselor, babysitter, and psychiatrist, no one took action to help her.

During his instructions to the jury, the judge refused to include any claim of self-defense: "[Under] Missouri law, the self-defense argument was not valid because she wasn't in actual danger at the moment she pulled the trigger."

The judge concluded that there was not any basis in the evidence for her claim of self-defense.

Despite several expert witnesses having testified and agreed during Lannert's trial (and later appeal) that Lannert showed signs of abuse, the jury found her guilty on December 15, 1990, and later in 1992 and sentenced her to life imprisonment, without (as required by applicable law) the possibility of parole.

Her sister, Christy, was tried and convicted of conspiracy to commit murder.

She was sentenced to five years' imprisonment.

She was released on parole after serving two and a half years.

After the judge's sentencing, some members of the jury expressed outrage that facts of sexual and physical abuse suffered by Lannert had not been introduced at the trial.

The presiding judge, the Hon. Steven H. Goldman, issued this statement regarding Stacey Lannert's case:

2009

On January 10, 2009, outgoing Missouri Governor Matt Blunt commuted Lannert's sentence and that of another woman convicted under similar circumstances.

He said, "After an exhaustive review of the facts in both cases, I am commuting the sentences of Stacey Lannert and Charity Carey, who suffered extensive abuse before they took action against the men who raped them and subjected them to other horrible physical and emotional abuse."

Lannert's new sentence of 20 years made her eligible for immediate conditional release, and she was released on January 16, 2009.

Lannert founded a resource website and non-profit organization, Healing Sisters, to aid women who have suffered abuse.

2011

In 2011, she published a memoir about her experiences, Redemption: A Story of Sisterhood, Survival, and Finding Freedom Behind Bars.
