A Pineville, MO, couple has now been charged in federal court for their roles in the kidnapping and murder of 33-year-old Ashley Bush and the 31-week-old baby she was carrying. Amber Waterman and her husband Jamie Waterman were charged in separate criminal complaints. Amber Waterman is being charged with one count of kidnapping resulting in death. According to the federal criminal complaint, Amber Waterman kidnapped Bush between Oct. 31 and Nov. 2 in order to claim her unborn child as her own. She allegedly transported Bush from Maysville, AR, to Pineville, resulting in her death. Jamie Waterman is being charged with one count of being an accessory after the fact to kidnapping resulting in death. According to an affidavit filed in support of the federal criminal complaints, Amber Waterman adopted the false name “Lucy” online in order to meet Bush. She then lured her to meet in order to give her a ride for a job interview — instead Amber killed Bush. Bush was reported missing on Oct. 31, after her fiancé says that he last saw her in a pickup truck with “Lucy.”Amber Waterman told police on Oct. 31 that she had gone into labor that evening and delivered a stillborn child. On Nov. 1, investigators were told by the Watermans that Amber had a miscarriage. Detectives then noticed blood stains on the inside of a truck that matched the description given by Bush’s fiancé. Amber Waterman allegedly led her husband to the body of Bush on Nov. 2, who was lying face down next to a boat near their home in Pineville. The couple then moved the body to the back of the residence and allegedly burned the body before driving a short distance to hide it. Jamie Waterman led agents and detectives to where the body was taken to, where a charred human body was discovered. An FBI evidence response team says they located a charred human hand and bone fragments in a burn pile behind the residence.
