GRAY, Ga. (AP) - A woman accused of killing a McDonough businessman with whom she'd done business and hiding his body under her porch has been indicted.
    
The Telegraph newspaper in Macon reports (http://bit.ly/MrMMSg ) that a grand jury on Thursday indicted 54-year-old Pamela Moss on a murder charge in the death of 67-year-old Doug Coker.
    
Coker's body was found March 18 at Moss' house just north of Macon. Moss has been in jail since March 21.
    
Investigators believe Coker, who died of blunt force trauma to the head, was killed March 13 when he went to the Macon area to meet Moss. Moss is a grant writer and was apparently helping Coker set up a charity.
    
Authorities have said Moss pleaded guilty to involuntary manslaughter in 1997 in the poisoning death of her mother.
