On the night of September 8, 2024, 30-year-old Chanti Dixon finished her shift in Indianapolis and ordered an Uber to take her home. When family members could not reach her, they reported her missing the next day. Her body was found on September 9, 2024, naked with gunshot wounds behind a concrete barrier in a wooded dead end on Wagner Lane.

Police identified the Uber driver, 29-year-old Francisco Valadez, as a person of interest. He gave conflicting accounts to detectives before confessing that he shot Dixon in the head while attempting to have sex with her in the back of his vehicle, and that he dragged her body from the car and left it by the barrier. Valadez was arrested and charged with murder, rape, and abuse of a corpse. He later pleaded guilty to murder; the rape and abuse-of-a-corpse counts were dismissed as part of a plea agreement. A judge sentenced him to 45 years in the Indiana Department of Correction and ordered him to register as a sexually violent offender.

Does anyone have information about Dixon’s final movements that night or about activity near Wagner Lane on September 8–9, 2024?
