Peggy told the court that she and Hank hated each other but she hated Kerry Ann Buxton even more. Therefore, Peggy would bestow her fortune to Hank at the condition of disinheriting Kerry Ann as well as letting Peggy stay in Buxton Mansion until her death.

Peggy crept up behind him on the rooftop, smashed a pot over his head and choked him to death with a pair of pantyhose. After Hank perished, Peggy planted Hank in a corpse flower pot and even planted one in Hank's mouth. Peggy lured [[Georgi Papacoulis]] into helping her carry Hank's dead body by making him believe that the victim was drunk, a feat which made [[Jones]] think Georgi was an accomplice to murder.
