Justin Scott Adams, 30, of Ligonier, Indiana, was killed on Monday, March 5, 2018, during a violent encounter that also claimed the life of Amanda Feldstein. The confrontation began when three people from Fort Wayne — Michael Jerome Johnson, Tiffani Elaine Cox, and Kyra Justine Frost — went to an apartment in Ligonier posing as part of a drug transaction to recover a Prada purse worth nearly $10,000 that Johnson said had been taken from his vehicle. Johnson later admitted to investigators that he shot both Adams and Feldstein.

A pursuit after the killings ended in Johnson’s arrest; Cox and Frost were also taken into custody. Investigators recovered a cell phone, hypodermic needles, and several purses from Johnson’s vehicle. The Noble County Prosecutor filed charges: Johnson with two counts of murder while committing robbery and one count of attempted murder while committing robbery, and Cox and Frost with aiding in an armed robbery.

Adams was remembered as a talented musician, a West Noble High School alumnus who ran cross country, and a devoted father to his son Aiden. Does anyone have information about Adams, Feldstein, or the events that night that could help clarify what happened?
