The Murder of Amanda Blackburn: The Sentencing of Larry Jo Taylor Jr.

The Murder of Amanda Blackburn: The Sentencing of Larry Jo Taylor Jr.

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.

A Conversation with Scott Turow

A Conversation with Scott Turow

We have always been fans of Scott Turow. The lawyer and author not only writes enthralling legal thrillers like Presumed Innocent and The Last Trial but he has also done important work in the legal system — including helping getting a wrongful conviction in a rape-murder case overturned.His newest novel, Suspect, came out last month. He joined us to talk about that novel (spoiler alert: it's a terrific read and we highly recommend it), his legal work, police "tightening" cases and the time the tables were turned and Turow found himself in the role of the accused man.Follow the Murder Sheet on social media:FacebookTwitterInstagramAnd send tips to murdersheet@gmail.com.The Murder Sheet is a production of Mystery Sheet LLC .See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
