‘An awful lot of evil’: Fresno man accused of killing and burning his pregnant sister

FRESNO, Calif. — Fresno police announced on Wednesday the arrest of a suspect they believe fatally stabbed his pregnant sister and her unborn child before dragging the body in a trash bin four blocks away and setting it on fire.

Police arrested 41-year-old Aaron Dudley on Tuesday as he ran from the west Fresno home he shared with his 26-year-old sister, N-Kya Rebecca Logan, who, at the time of her death, was 36 weeks pregnant with a baby she planned to name Noah. Logan just had her baby shower the Sunday before she was found dead.

Fresno Police Chief Paco Balderrama announced the arrest during a news conference at Police Department headquarters in downtown Fresno alongside District Attorney Lisa Smittcamp. The county prosecutor said she anticipates filing two murder charges against Dudley since the baby likely would’ve survived outside the womb.
