BEDFORD HILLS, N.Y.—Twenty years later, the woman at the center of one of New Hampshire's most notorious murders continues to insist she had nothing to do with plotting her husband's death.

Pamela Smart is serving life without parole after being convicted in 1991 of recruiting her teenager lover and his friends to murder her husband a year earlier.

In an interview from the Bedford Hills Correctional Facility in New York, Smart told WMUR-TV that the worst mistake of her life was her affair with Billy Flynn.

Smart was a 22-year-old high school media coordinator and Flynn was 15 when he killed Gregg Smart at the couple's Derry, N.H., home. He and another accomplice are eligible for release in 2015. Two others have been paroled.
