Amber Dawn Herron was 33 when she was killed on the night of August 1, 2017, in Evansville, Indiana. According to accounts, a heated argument between Amber and her husband, Charles Herron, escalated while they were sitting in their car outside their home, and Charles fatally shot Amber there.

Amber worked in human services at the Ozanam Family Shelter and taught Sunday School; those who knew her remembered her as kind, compassionate, and good at making people feel important. After the shooting, Charles told a neighbor about what happened and was arrested. Court records show he entered a guilty but mentally ill plea in connection with Amber’s death and has been sentenced.
