HENDERSON, Ky. - A woman and her boyfriend were indicted Tuesday in last month's slaying of a social worker who had brought the woman's infant son to his mother's home for a visit.
The pair are accused of killing Boni Frederick, 67, and kidnapping the baby before they fled. They were found three days later in Illinois. The boy was returned to his foster parents.
The child had been removed from his mother's care when he was 13 days old because of neglect, and the courts were in the process of permanently stripping her of parental rights when Frederick was slain on Oct. 16, police said.
Renee D. Terrell, 33, and Christopher Luttrell, 23, were indicted on charges of murder, kidnapping, robbery and theft. They were jailed pending arraignment next week.
Police have said the two admitted beating Frederick in the head with an iron skillet.
