It's gotta be magic, her face is dog ugly. *howls*

JENKINTOWN, PA - Christina Rubin, a 22-year-old college graduate living in Jenkintown, didn't like it when her father yelled at her. So when her boyfriend said he'd like to kill him, Rubin agreed, police said.

The slaying was quick - a single gunshot to the back of Marc Rubin's head, police said. But the cover-up apparently wasn't as easy. Despite the couple's attempt to dismember the body and wash away evidence at the victim's apartment, police said, they found plenty to build a case against the pair.

"It is certainly fair to say that everything they touched is botched," Montgomery County District Attorney Risa Ferman said yesterday.

Rubin and her boyfriend, Jeffrey W. Leinheiser, 20, of the 100 block of Cedar Street in Jenkintown, were charged with first-degree murder and other offenses on Sunday and ordered held without bail, Ferman said.

Police also arrested a friend of the couple, Daniel Dougherty, 19, of the 300 block of Greenwood Avenue in Jenkintown. They said he helped dispose of Marc Rubin's body. Dougherty was charged with tampering with evidence and abuse of a corpse, and was being held yesterday in lieu of $25,000 bail.

A deer hunter found the body of Marc Rubin, 46, on Dec. 8 in a wooded area off Tamminen Road in Hamilton Township, N.J. The body had been covered in trash bags, rolled up in a beige carpet and duct-taped, according to a criminal complaint.

Inside, they said they found a chainsaw, latex gloves that appeared to have blood on them, and what looked like blood on the living room walls and floor.

Christina Rubin, who graduated with a bachelor's degree in psychology and sociology from Pennsylvania State University last spring, allegedly admitted to the slaying when police questioned her Saturday. According to police, Christina Rubin said that Leinheiser heard Marc Rubin yell at her sometime around Nov. 17 and said, "That's not right. I wish I could kill him."

The couple began to talk seriously about the slaying, planning it for the day after Thanksgiving using Christina Rubin's .357 magnum revolver, police said.

Leinheiser came to the apartment at about 11 p.m. Nov. 28, and shot Marc Rubin in the back of the head while he slept, police said. The couple then fled and stayed in hotels for a week, having no plan to dispose of the body, police said.

They returned Dec. 5 after purchasing a chainsaw and planned to chop up the body and dispose of it in trash bags, police said.

But Leinheiser's dismemberment attempt failed when Marc Rubin's shorts got caught in the chainsaw, according to Christina Rubin's account to police. Leinheiser asked Dougherty to help get rid of the body, police said.

After wrapping it in trash bags and an area rug, the crew dragged the body down nine flights of steps, put it in Christina Rubin's car, and dumped it in Hamilton Township.

What a dumb slut killed her father because he yelled at her? Probably was yelling at her about how fucking stupid she is, not to mention how ugly. Geez this is awful you raise the little twit, you send her to college and then she dismembers you with her stupid boyfriend because you yell at her. Poor guy.

A suburban Philadelphia woman and her boyfriend have pleaded guilty to killing her father, after which prosecutors say they tried to dismember the body with a chain saw and then disposed of it a wooded area in New Jersey.

The body of 46-year-old Marc Rubin was found in the Pine Barrens in December 2008. Prosecutors said it had been left in his apartment for more than a week before it was dumped.

Twenty-three-year-old Christina Rubin and 21-year-old Jeffrey Leinheiser of Jenkintown pleaded guilty to an open charge of murder, leaving a judge to determine their degree of guilt, and to conspiracy to murder and abuse of corpse.

Defense lawyers allege that the victim subjected his daughter to years of physical, sexual and mental abuse, but prosecutor Kevin Steele says investigators have found no evidence of abuse.

A "degree of guilt" hearing is being held:Both Rubin and Leinheiser already have pleaded guilty to charges stemming from the killing and the attempt to dismember the decomposing body before dumping it in New Jersey.

While the pair has pleaded guilty to a general charge of homicide, they have left it up to Montgomery County Judge Thomas C. Branca to determine whether they are guilty of first-, second- or third-degree murder or voluntary manslaughter. The penalties on these charges range from mandatory life imprisonment without parole to 10 to 20 years in prison.
In testimony:
Christina E. Rubin testified her father abused her in the days before her boyfriend shot him to death.

A 23-year-old Abington woman Tuesday testified she and her boyfriend had no other option but to shoot and kill her father as he was sleeping last Nov. 28.

When she told her father two weeks prior to the slaying that she was going to move out, "He got out a gun, pointed it at my head, said that if I wanted to leave there was the door but he didn't think I would make it that far," testified Rubin, a graduate student studying psychology at Chestnut Hill College at the time of the killing.

"I began seriously fearing for my life," Rubin said.

That fear was reinforced by her boyfriend, Jeffrey W. Leinheiser, 21, who, after overhearing phone conversations between Rubin and her father as well as prior incidents that Rubin shared with him, told her, "Baby, that's not right, the way he treats you. It's going to be you or him because he is going to kill you," Rubin related in her testimony.

On the day of the shooting, which occurred on the night of Black Friday, there were two incidents of abuse, according to Rubin. Prior to her leaving early that morning for her job at a sneaker store at the Plymouth Meeting Mall, her father yelled at her for not taking out the trash and threw her against a wall, choking her, according to Rubin.

While she was at work, her father told her to stop at the store and pick up some red meat. Rubin testified her father intended to leave the meat out overnight, collect the juices and use it to poison a former supervisor who fired him by putting the liquid in the supervisor's coffee.

When she got home, her father screamed at her because the meat was not red enough and again choked her, according to her testimony.

After her father went to sleep that night, she opened the apartment door and gave Leinheiser the gun that he used to shoot her father in the back of the head, Rubin testified.

Prior to Rubin's testimony, psychologist Dr. Gerald Cook testified that Rubin suffered from battered person's syndrome and that she truly believed that she had no other options but to kill her father.

County First Assistant District Attorney Kevin R. Steele, who claims it is a "classic case" of first-degree murder, grilled Cook as to whether he believed Rubin, with her background in psychology, could have misled Cook. Steele pointed out that Rubin, as an undergraduate, did an independent study project on abused women.

However, Cook said statements from other people as well as tests he gave to Rubin in addition to information he gathered in his interview with her, support his finding.

One of those supporting Rubin's testimony was her father's brother, who testified he believed that Rubin was at least mentally abused by her father but that he took no action because Rubin never confided in him.

Rubin said did not tell others about the incidents because he threatened he would hurt her more and hurt the person she told even worse, according to her testimony.
