A Hardin County couple remains incarcerated after they allegedly threw a man from a balcony in Elizabethtown, leading to the man’s death.
Shawn Durbin and Nancy Durbin face charges of Complicity to Commit Murder following an incident in Elizabethtown earlier this month.
“At around 8 p.m. on November 3th, officers responded to 109 East Memorial Drive on the report of an adult male in cardiac arrest after reportedly being thrown from his second story balcony,” said Elizabethtown Police Department Public Information Officer Chris Denham. “Investigators determined Shawn and Nancy Durbin acted together to throw the victim, Mr. Bobby Pennington, off the balcony. As a result, he was critically injured and later passed away.”
Pennington was 62.
Both of the Durbins were indicted by a grand jury on November 20. They are both being held in the Hardin County Detention Center on $500,000 cash bonds.
