In September 2017, Kirk J. Shurill was shot and killed in a crowded parking lot in the 1800 block of East 23rd Street in Indianapolis. Witnesses said Jeffery Buckley approached Shurill’s vehicle, an argument followed, and Buckley produced a gun and fired multiple times. The shots caused Shurill’s car to crash; the motive for the dispute and shooting was not stated.

Buckley was arrested and charged in connection with the killing. He was convicted at trial in 2019; that conviction was reversed by the Indiana Court of Appeals in August 2020 and the case was remanded. A new three-day jury trial in March 2022 again resulted in Buckley being found guilty, and he received a 60-year prison sentence for the 2017 shooting.
