INDIANAPOLIS—A man found guilty of murder, robbery, and other charges in the 2015 killing of an Indianapolis pastor’s wife during a break-in was sentenced Friday to 86 years in prison.
Larry Jo Taylor Jr. in September also was convicted after a four-day bench trial of burglary, theft, criminal confinement, and carrying a handgun without a license in the slaying of Amanda Blackburn. He was acquitted of a robbery charge. His two jury trials ended in mistrials, most recently in June.
