Travis Lee Craig, 38, was killed at his Lawrence County, Indiana, home on October 6, 2017. He lived there with his wife Debbie, their children, and another relative. Law enforcement treated the death as a homicide and the Sheriff’s Department opened an immediate investigation.

Detectives searched the residence and seized about twenty firearms. A cousin of Debbie’s, Joseph M. Backenstoes, had been living in the house since at least May 2017 and was interviewed by Detective Phil Wigley on the day of the killing. Backenstoes acknowledged firing shotguns and several rifles at the Craig property in a recorded interview, but the record does not describe that as a confession to the homicide or say he admitted shooting Travis. Evidence gathered in the investigation led prosecutors to charge Backenstoes with unlawful possession of a firearm by a serious violent felon; that prosecution resulted in a conviction and sentence, but it was not a murder charge.

No publicly documented arrest, indictment, or conviction for the homicide is shown in the material found. Does anyone have information about Travis, the household, or that day in October 2017?
