DECATUR, Ga. (AP) -- A prosecutor's spokesman says the widow of a Georgia businessman who was gunned down outside a suburban Atlanta preschool in 2010 has been taken into custody.

DeKalb County District Attorney's spokesman Erik Burton said Thursday that Andrea Sneiderman was in custody, but he declined to discuss charges or other specifics until a 1 p.m. news conference.

Russell Sneiderman, an ambitious Harvard-educated businessman, was gunned down just after he dropped his son off at a preschool in Dunwoody in November 2010.

The case drew national attention after authorities arrested Andrea Sneiderman's boss and charged him with the slaying.

The trial largely centered on whether Andrea Sneiderman was involved in an affair with Neuman, who was convicted.
