BOONE COUNTY, MO. -- Jurors watched more than eight hours of video testimony during the murder trial of a Columbia woman accused of plotting to kill her estranged husband six years ago.

Authorities said Tausha Morton is responsible for the 2004 shooting death of her former husband Mitch Kemp.

Prosecutors played videos of Tausha’s interviews with several Boone County Sheriff investigators.

Police took the videos in 2007 while Tausha was living in Alabama.

At first, the videos show that Tausha denied her role in the murder.

Eventually, Tausha used a map to show the exact location of Mitch Kemp’s unmarked grave.

“It’s right here," Tausha Morton said to investigators pointing to a location on a map. "I’m telling you, it’s right here." 

Eventually, Tausha Morton led deputies to Mitch Kemp’s unmarked grave on some property south of Columbia.

The trial will resume Monday morning and is expected to last until Wednesday.

If convicted of first degree murder, Tausha Morton could be sentenced to life in prison.
