Television producer Jill Blackstone has been arrested in Baltimore on a murder warrant related to the Studio City death of her deaf and partly blind sister, Los Angeles police officials said Thursday.

Blackstone, whose production work includes “The Jerry Springer Show” and “Family Court with Judge Penny,” is accused of drugging her sister and placing her, along with three pet dogs, in the garage before setting it on fire and “staging it as an accident,” the Los Angeles Police Department said in a news release. At least one of the dogs also died.

After Los Angeles County prosecutors issued a warrant for her arrest last month, Blackstone was arrested by LAPD’s Operations-Valley Bureau Homicide detectives and Baltimore police at a hospital in Baltimore early Thursday, according to LAPD Officer Mike Lopez.

Homicide detectives were notified by the suspect’s attorney that she had checked herself into the hospital due to a medical condition, according to police.

The Los Angeles County District Attorney’s office had filed one count of murder and three counts of animal cruelty against the suspect on March 9, according to a D.A. office spokesman.

“She’s currently still in Baltimore, Maryland,” Lopez said. “LAPD detectives flew back here, and they’re waiting for (her) extradition.”

Her sister, Wendy Blackstone, 49, was reportedly found unconscious in March of 2015 in a garage in the 12000 block of Landale Street.

Blackstone’s cause of death was determined to be the combined effects of inhalation of products of combustion and Alprazolam, which is another name for Xanax, according to Ed Winter of the Los Angeles County Department of Medical Examiner-Coroner.

Jill Blackstone previously had been arrested on suspicion of her sister’s death but was released after prosecutors asked police to produce more evidence.

LAPD homicide detectives worked and Los Angeles Fire Department Arson investigators conducted independent investigations. Their follow-up work included “significant travel, research, numerous interviews, and additional forensic evidence processing which added time to this extremely complex and sensitive investigation,” officials said.

“It’s a murder case; we continue to work on murder cases until they are solved,” LAPD Detective Dave Peteque said. “It doesn’t matter how long it takes.”

Ricardo Santiago, a spokesman for the DA’s office, said it’s still unknown when Blackstone will appear in a Los Angeles County courtroom.

If convicted, she faces life in prison with parole, Santiago said.

Court records show that the TV producer was deep in debt and filed for bankruptcy in 2012, three years before her sister’s death.

Blackstone had also worked on shows that included “Divorce Court,” and “The Tony Danza Show.”
