Man charged with killing girlfriend inside their Prince George's Co. home

Courtney Blacksher was found shot to death on Thursday afternoon. Now, her boyfriend is charged with her murder.

UPPER MARLBORO, Md. — A man is accused of killing his girlfriend after police found her shot to death inside their Upper Marlboro home Thursday afternoon. 

According to the Prince George's County Police Department, officers were called to the 200 block of Harry S. Truman Drive around 3:45 p.m. 

When officers arrived, they found a woman inside a home. She had been shot and was pronounced dead at the scene. That woman has since been identified as 43-year-old Courtney Blacksher.

Later that evening, police arrested Blacksher's boyfriend, 43-year-old Keith Maybin, Jr.

Investigators claim Maybin was taken into custody by Seat Pleasant Police officers after he threatened two people with a gun on Central Avenue. Those victims are not connected to Blacksher's death. 

Maybin has been charged with first and second-degree murder, assault and related charges. He is in the custody of the Department of Corrections on a no-bond status.

Anyone with information may contact Prince George's County Homicide Unit detectives at 301-516-2512 or Crime Solvers at 1-866-411-TIPS (8477).
