Blaise Taylor, a former college football player for Arkansas State and later a scout for the NFL's Tennessee Titans, has been sentenced for the murder of his girlfriend, Jade Benning, and their unborn child. Taylor was convicted of first- and second-degree murder.
On Wednesday, he received a 22-year sentence for the death of Benning, who was five months pregnant. He had previously been given a life sentence for the death of Benning's unborn child. The convictions stem from Taylor's act of poisoning his girlfriend and their child.
