Story here. Excerpt:

'A psychiatrist has been accused of using sex, drugs and hypnosis to persuade a patient to kill her husband.

Mary Hein is facing up to 20 years in jail after using her skills to manipulate a patient into committing murder.

The 45-year-old is alleged to have told the patient they would share her husband's $500,000 life insurance policy if he carried out the killing.
...
The patient told police Hein said they would be a couple after her husband was dead and they could live comfortably off the husband's half a million dollar life insurance policy.

Hein was arrested after the man went to police and the therapist was secretly recorded plotting her husband's murder.

The respected psychiatrist has been charged with sexual exploitation by a therapist, one count of solicitation of first-degree intentional homicide and one count of obstructing an officer.'
