 Davey Blackburn, the husband of an Indianapolis woman shot and killed in her home last week, spoke out for the first time on Good Morning America, and said he is "baffled" by the slaying. 
  
 Amanda Blackburn died Thursday after she was shot and killed Tuesday morning in her Northwestside home in what police are calling a burglary. 
  
 "Amanda didn't have an enemy in the world," Blackburn told GMA anchor George Stephanopoulos. "This has baffled us as much as anybody." 
  
 Detectives said in a press conference on Friday that surveillance equipment captured images of a suspect who police said burglarized a nearby home just before Blackburn's killing. 
  
 Blackburn, pastor and founder of Resonate Church, an independent church on the Northside, said investigators haven't briefed him on the case beyond what police have released to the public. 
  
 He spoke at length during the segment about his wife's relationship with Jesus. Both come from a family of preachers. 
  
 "She spent her life pouring her life out to people," Blackburn said of his wife. 
  
 When asked about his 15-month-old son Weston, Blackburn said knowing he will grow up without his mom has been "one of the hardest things in this whole process." 
  
 Detectives are still searching for the suspect caught on camera, described by police as a a male between 5 feet 4 inches and 5 feet 9 inches tall and of slim-to-medium build, who was wearing light-colored pants and a two-toned hoodie. 
  
 Police said last week that the suspect slipped into the house after seeing Davey Blackburn leave for the gym.

 Police have released two photos of the man suspected of killing Amanda Blackburn, the pregnant 28-year-old woman who was fatally shot inside her home a week ago. 
  
 During a Friday press conference, officials with the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department said surveillance footage collected at the scene gave them a glimpse of the suspect who entered Blackburn's home in the 2800 block of Sunnyfield Court Tuesday morning while her husband, Pastor Davey Blackburn, was at the gym, and the couple's toddler was in his crib. 
  
 IMPD released the two surveillance photos around 9 p.m. Monday. 
  
 The man seen in the photos is described by investigators as being between 5 feet 4 inches and 5 feet 9 inches tall with a slim-to-medium build. He was wearing light-colored pants and a two-toned hoodie. His photo was captured by a surveillance camera system of a home on Sunnyfield.

 Police said he attempted to conceal his face from neighbors as he entered the home. 
  
 Blackburn's husband found her in their home about 8:30 a.m. Tuesday when he returned from the gym. A resident reported hearing gunshots between 6:45 and 6:55 a.m. She died Thursday and her organs were procured for donation. 
  
 It is believed that the suspect entered in an attempt to burglarize the home, but police have not said whether anything was stolen. 
  
 Authorities have also stated that there was "no forced entry" into the home but have not elaborated. 
  
 As police work to track down Blackburn's killer, thousands of residents packed the Traders Point Christian Church Sunday to honor her life. 
  
 The service was coordinated by four churches, including NewSpring Church, the church the Blackburns attended in South Carolina, and Resonate Church, the Indianapolis church of which Davey Blackburn is pastor.

 INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. (November 17, 2015) — Amanda Blackburn’s husband is talking about his loss publicly for the first time after investigators say the young, pregnant mother was murdered. 
  
 Police say she was shot in the head at her home on northwest side a week ago. Husband and pastor Davey Blackburn was on "Good Morning America" Tuesday, saying his wife loved people and spent her entire life serving others. 
  
 “She gave hope to people who didn’t have hope, didn’t think they had a future — she just absolutely gave everything she had to her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ,” said Blackburn. 
  
 Now investigators say they hope someone out there can help them catch the person or people responsible for the murder. Police released new surveillance photos on Monday night showing someone who they say is a “person of interest” in the case. The man is wearing a hooded sweatshirt, dark pants and walking down Sunnyfield court, just down the street from where Amanda lived. 
  
 “Amanda didn’t have any enemy in the world,” Blackburn said. 
  
 “It was such an obscure photo and it’s extremely difficult to say that anybody recognized it — I mean our family, our neighborhood was so close and it was such a seemingly safe neighborhood, so this has devastated all the neighbors,” he said. 
  
 “We are trusting the investigators, they’ve been so good to us through this whole process. We trust that they are doing the best they can,” he said. 
  
 Police say the man in those photos was seen leaving a house down the street where a break-in occurred — it was the same morning Amanda was killed. IMPD is working with the FBI right now and police are asking anyone with information to call Crime Stoppers at 317-262-TIPS. 
  
 Davey Blackburn said one of the most difficult discussions has been with his young son, Weston. 
  
 “I think that’s probably one of the hardest things in this process, knowing that he’s not going to grow up with Amanda, because she was the perfect mom. I wish every mom in the world could learn from her, I wish every wife in the world could learn from her,” he said. |||||Summary:

– Indianapolis police trying to find out who murdered Amanda Blackburn on Nov. 10 have ruled out her husband, Davey, and on Friday they announced a breakthrough: a picture of the suspect. The Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department released two photos Monday night, captured by a neighboring home's security camera, the Indianapolis Star reports. Cops say the suspect—who has a slight-to-medium build, stands between 5 feet 4 inches and 5 feet 9 inches tall, and was wearing light-colored pants and a hoodie—looked like he was trying to hide his face as he entered the Blackburns' home. "It was such an obscure photo and it's extremely difficult to say that anybody recognized it," Davey Blackburn said Tuesday morning during a Good Morning America appearance, per Fox59. "Our neighborhood was so close ... this has devastated all the neighbors." As the police implore the public to come forward with any information that could help crack the case, they're releasing more details. The suspect is believed to have left the area in a dark-colored SUV, which police think contained multiple stolen TVs, WRTV reports. A memorial for the slain 28-year-old, who was 12 weeks pregnant, was held Sunday night at a nearby church, and more than 2,000 showed up to pay their respects, the Star reports. Davey Blackburn, meanwhile, said he was "baffled" by his wife's murder—"Amanda didn't have an enemy in the world"—and that the worst part for him is knowing their 15-month-old son, Weston, will grow up without his mother. "She was the perfect mom," he said, per Fox59. "I wish every mom in the world could've learned from her."
