Police Officer's Shooting Nets Indictment
KENTUCKY...
State troopers have made an arrest in the fatal shooting of a central Kentucky police officer.
A news release from state police says the officer's wife, 37-year-old Tonya M. Ford of Campbellsville, was arrested Wednesday at the Taylor County courthouse after being indicted the previous day on a charge of murder-domestic violence.
Ford had reported finding her husband, 40-year-old David M. Ford, dead last year at their home in Taylor County. David Ford had been with the Lebanon police force in neighboring Marion County for 3 1/2 years.
Police say a Taylor County grand jury handed down the indictment Tuesday after listening to testimony from 17 witnesses.
Court records show Tonya Ford is due to be arraigned on Nov. 1.
