EDWARDSVILLE, Ill. (AP) — Prosecutors investigating the death of a prominent Illinois attorney have turned over more than 65 pieces of evidence, including a recording of an interview with the suspect.

Pharmacy student Timothy Michael Banowetz is accused of killing attorney Randy Gori in January and holding two children captive at Gori’s home in Edwardsville. Banowetz faces three counts of first degree murder and three counts of theft, among other things.

Investigators haven’t commented on a motive, but the crime also included the theft of a Rolls-Royce SUV, cash and cellphones. Banowetz has pleaded not guilty. He’s in custody at the Madison County Jail.
