Pastor whose pregnant wife was murdered in their home remarries just 2 years later

Pastor
Davey Blackburn, of Indianapolis, announced his new marriage on
Facebook on Monday. He made the announcement with a simple bible verse
and a picture from his wedding day.

He
wrote: “Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you
not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the
desert. – Isaiah? ?43:19?.”

In
November, Blackburn announced his engagement on the two-year
anniversary of the day his wife was killed and this didn’t go down well
with some people who felt he could have chosen a more appropriate time. 

Blackburn’s
late wife, Amanda, (pictured above) was shot in the head during an
attempted burglary when three men entered the family’s home through a
door Blackburn left open when he left for work. 

Amanda,
who was 12 weeks pregnant, was home alone with the couple’s then
15-month-old son, Weston at the time. Waston was not harmed. Later,
Jalen Watson, 21, Larry Taylor, 18 and Diano Gordon, 24, were arrested
and charged with Amanda Blackburn’s murder.

Blackburn’s
engagement to Kristi Monroy was announced on his blog. He said he first
spotted Monroy at this church. In the blog post entitled, “I just
popped the question… & she said yes!” Blackburn documents his story
of grief after Amanda’s death, to meeting his now-wife.

He wrote: “I realize for many people this may seem a bit soon and trust me, it did to me as well.”

In
August, Blackburn and his new woman Monroy spent a week with his family
and a week with his late wife Amanda’s family. Blackburn popped the
question to Monroy on Nov. 8.

Blackburn said his late wife’s dad had given him advice about his relationship.

“Davey, take it slow until you know she’s the right one. Once you know, go fast, and we’ll be right there with you.”

People are now suspecting he may have had a hand in his wife’s murder…
