PHOENIX (AP) — Fifteen years after three infants died in her care, a baby sitter faces murder charges.

Amy Lynn Scott, 36, is awaiting extradition to Arizona from Georgia after a detective re-examined the evidence in the separate deaths in the Phoenix area over nine months in 1989.

Scott had gone to church with the parents of all three infants and lived in the same neighborhood.

The deaths of Zachary Mann, Shauna Cunnington and Jordan Whitmer were considered suspicious at the time but were ruled natural or unexplained because investigators didn't have a solid case against Scott.
