She has been charged with forgery and first-degree murder
The Kansas City lawyer charged with killing her millionaire father by forging documents to deny him medical care no longer has control over his will.
A Clay County probate court judge removed Susan Elizabeth Van Note as the personal representative of her father's estate on Thursday.
Van Note, free on a one-million-dollar cash bond, attended the hearing but did not testify or comment afterward.
The Boone County prosecutor has charged her with forgery and first-degree murder.
William Van Note died in a hospital in October 2010 after his daughter showed doctors a document giving her permission to remove him from life support. William and his girlfriend, Sharon Dickson, were shot at their Lake of the Ozarks vacation home.
No one has been charged in Dickson’s death.
