TRENTON, Neb. (AP) - Another person has been charged in the fatal beating of a southwestern Nebraska man.

Hitchcock County Court records say 33-year-old Samantha Bell, also known as Samantha Strohm, is charged with first-degree murder and with conspiracy to commit robbery. She remained in custody Thursday at the Hitchcock County Jail in Trenton.

The records say she and 42-year-old Darin Mason are suspected of fatally beating 49-year-old Todd Miller on Aug. 16, 2017, during a drug robbery at his home in Culbertson. Mason was arrested last month.
