Summary

In 2015, a woman named Amanda Blackburn was murdered in Indianapolis, along with her unborn child. Seven years later, Larry Jo Taylor Jr. — the man convicted of pulling the trigger — faced Amanda's loved ones, prosecutors, and a judge in the court room, as he awaited his sentence.


NOTE: In the episode we mention that Drew Snyder represented the state at this hearing. We based this on an entry on mycase. We have been reliably informed that Mr. Snyder was in fact not present at the hearing. As soon as we can get confirmation of the identity of the prosecutor at the hearing, we will correct the episode.
