MUSCLE SHOALS, AL (WAFF) -

in the slaying of 32-year-old Amanda Taylor of Leighton.
Laurel Ann Pruett of
Sheffield is accused of murder and hindering prosecution, and
21-year-old Mathew Richard Fox of Florence is charged with murder,

strangling Taylor with a nylon strap in the basement of his home.
Weems and Fox allegedly put the body in the trunk of a car, and Pruett is charged with helping cover up the crime.
The victim's skeletal remains were discovered Saturday off of Gnat Pond Road, leading to the arrests.
