A Fort Wayne woman already imprisoned for the murders of her two children will admit to killing her neighbor next month.

30-year-old Amber Pasztor has a “change of plea” hearing set for April 9th, when she’s expected to plead “guilty but mentally ill” in the shooting death of Frank Macomber.

Police say she admitted to luring Macomber into a wooded area, then shooting him with a hunting rifle and stealing his car the same day she kidnapped her children and smothered them back in 2016.

According to court records her attorneys are hoping to see sentencing happen on the same day as her hearing.

Pasztor was sentenced to 130 years in prison last year for the deaths of Liliana Hernandez and Rene Pasztor.
