Suspects Arrested in Pastor’s Wife Slaying

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. (WOWO): Police in Indianapolis have arrested an 18-year-old man for the shooting death of an Indiana pastor's pregnant wife earlier this month.


Larry Taylor has been charged with murder and could face additional charges. He and two other suspects, identified as Jalen Watson and Diano Gordon, are charged with the November 10th burglary that led to the death of Elkhart native Amanda Blackburn. The two other men left Blackburn's home after stealing her ATM card, while Taylor allegedly raped her before shooting her to death.

An Indianapolis TV station says all three will be charged in at least three more burglaries. Blackburn was home alone with her 1-year-old son; her husband was away at the gym, and found her body two hours later.
