Authorities say the victim was 8 months pregnant and had a baby shower just days before her death.
FRESNO, Calif. - A Fresno man was arrested for allegedly stabbing to death his pregnant sister and setting her body on fire, police said Wednesday.
Aaron Dudley, 41, was taken into custody on Tuesday as he ran from the west Fresno home, police said. He shared the home with N-Kya Rebecca Logan, 26, who was 36 weeks pregnant. She had a baby shower just a few days earlier, authorities said.Investigators believe that Dudley repeatedly stabbed Logan, put her body in a city trash bin, wheeled the bin about four blocks to the access road, poured gasoline on his sister’s body and set her ablaze.There was no immediate word on a motive for the stabbing.
Dudley was expected to be charged with two counts of murder because the unborn child probably could have survived outside the womb, authorities said. “It takes an awful lot of evil, hate and planning to stab your own sister multiple times,” Police Chief Paco Balderrama said at a news conference.“Since I was informed about this incident yesterday, I haven’t stopped thinking about it,” the chief said.Copyright 2022 The Associated Press.
