Professor shoved to death by friends who mistakenly thought he included them in his will

Two friends of a professor who allegedly pushed him 80 feet off a cliff into a quarry because they thought they were in his will have been charged with murder. Danielle Geier, 32, and George Ishler, 39, thought they both featured in Ronald Bettig’s last will and testament.
According to the New York Daily News, cops found the body of the media studies teacher in a quarry in Centre County, Pennsylvania, US, on Wednesday. The 56-year-old, who taught at Pennsylvania State University and was referred to as "the nutty professor" by those who didn't know him, and was friends with the pair. Geier and Ishler were "known drug users" according to police. They are accused of killing Bettig for the benefits, and authorities said Geier was sharing his home, according to the Centre Daily Times.
In court documents it stated the pair had originally plotted to have Ishler drown Bettig when they went to Rehoboth Beach in Delaware. They later decided it another option was to kill him at the Centre County quarry.c
A text which Geier sent while on the ocean trip read: "So ready I am pissed off."
Police interpreted this to mean she was ready to kill Bettig because he had commented on the way her son was being raised.cThe pair convinced Bettig to travel to the quarry because they said they could harvest marijuana there, then allegedly pushed him to his death. Geier confessed to police they staged it to make it look like the professor was there alone, putting his bottles, flashlight, hand rake and a bag near the quarry. They then reported him missing three days later. Their plot was revealed when there were inconsistencies in their story.
