A woman has been sentenced for her role in the murder and dismemberment of a man in Bradford County.

Ronda Marie Parker, 51, currently residing at the Bradford County Correctional Facility, was sentenced to 15 to 40 years in state prison on May 11.


Parker was convicted of third-degree murder in January for her part in the murder of Michael Pruitt in March of 2024. Parker, along with her estranged husband, Terry, and Terry's girlfriend, Summer Heil, were convicted of luring Pruitt to Ronda Parker's home, where Pruitt was killed.


Ringleader planned murder

Terry Parker believed Pruitt had masturbated in front of two young relatives, which led him to pressure the two women to help murder Pruitt and chop up his body with an ax, prosecutors said.


“During the two year long investigation, it became clear that Terry Parker was primarily responsible for the murder of Michael Pruitt,” said District Attorney Richard Wilson.  


Terry Parker was convicted of first-degree murder and sentenced to life in prison recently following a jury trial.
