Murder of Sherri L. Pearson

 On the night of September 12, 1993, 27-year-old Sherri Pearson was alone at her home in Kendallville, Indiana. Her children were with their grandparents. A fire had broken out at the home and Sherri would be found laying down in the living room. 

It was initially believed that the fire was done by faulty wiring, but it was found to be arson. There were several places in the house where a flammable liquid was spread. Toxicologists found that before her death Sherri had been injected with a drug that had impaired her and then the fire was started, where she would die of smoke inhalation.
