AMARILLO, Texas (AP) - A Texas Panhandle grand jury has indicted a divorced couple in the 1987 shooting death of a friend.

Potter County Detention Center records show 63-year-old Rosie Green was being held Wednesday on a murder charge. Bond was set at $10,000.

Investigators say the case involves the shooting death of 23-year-old Arthur Campbell.

The Amarillo Globe-News reports the indictment returned in May was unsealed Monday after authorities arrested Green at her Henderson, Ky., home. Her ex-husband, 77-year-old Horace Green of Amarillo, is also charged with murder. He's free on $10,000 bond.

Court records indicate Rosie Green was listed as a beneficiary on Campbell's life insurance policy.

Jail records had no information on attorneys for the Greens. A prosecutor did not immediately return a message Wednesday to provide further details.
