LAWRENCEBURG, IN (FOX19)- Testimony continued in the trial of a Northern Kentucky man accused of murdering an Indiana woman.

Charles Stephenson faces life in prison without parole for the murder of 67-year-old Leigh Jennings.

Jennings' body was found on April 5, 2012 in her Aurora home. Police say Jennings had actually been killed days before, on March 29.

Investigators believe Stephenson beat Leigh Jennings to death with a pepper grinder and a skillet in her home.

If convicted, he faces life in prison without parole. Prosecutors say the trial is expected to last into next week.

Stephenson is the nephew of Bill and Peggy Stephenson, who were murdered in Boone County in 2011. Their murders remain unsolved, but Stephenson is not a suspect in that case.

FLORENCE, KY (FOX19) - Florence Elementary 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students participated in the first of many Science Knights at the end of April. Mrs. Amy Lawrence and Ms. Carleen Powell worked closely with Mr. Martin Schadler, a representative from the Boone County Cooperative Extension, to put together a program of science and engineering to highlight 21st century skills.

Students and guests traveled through 3 hands-on activity centers. They built an operational compost heap to learn how worms turn waste into fertile soil, and got to examine and analyze different types of soil using the district’s new microscopes. They made trusses by turning paper tubes into structures and then tested those structures for strength using weights. During the third activity they learned about aeronautics through a description of flight and by making and test flying a variety of paper airplanes.
