A woman accused of helping her religious leader hide a decaying corpse on her toilet so they could continue collecting her Social Security has been convicted of a misdemeanor.

Tammy Lewis of Necedah pleaded no contest today to obstructing a police officer and was fined $350.

Prosecutors accused the 36-year-old Lewis and 58-year-old Alan Bushey of hiding 90-year-old Magdeline Alvina Middlesworth's body on a toilet in Lewis' home after she died in March. Investigators say Middlesworth and Lewis were members of a religious sect Bushey led.

A criminal complaint says Bushey told Lewis that God would revive Middlesworth, who friends and family said was from Washington state.

Court records say that as part of Lewis' plea deal, Judge John Roemer deferred prosecution for two years on five other charges.
