Chicago man accused of killing girlfriend's mother in Indonesia pleads not guilty to U.S. charges

A Chicago man convicted in Indonesia of beating his then-girlfriend's mother to death with a fruit bowl and hiding the body in a suitcase more than a decade ago pleaded not guilty Thursday to federal charges in the U.S. Tommy Schaefer was sentenced in Indonesia to 18 years in prison in connection with the 2014 murder of Chicago socialite Sheila von Wiese-Mack while on vacation in Bali with the woman and her daughter, Heather Mack. According to prosecutors, Mack covered her mother's mouth while Schaefer pummeled her with a fruit bowl.
