On the evening of October 12, 2016, shots rang out on Ridgeway Avenue in Lafayette, Indiana. Kristi Redmon, a 52-year-old elementary art teacher who had taught at Edgelea and Miami schools for about twenty years, answered a knock at her front door just before 8:30 p.m. Neighbors found her lying unresponsive on the front porch with fatal gunshot wounds; she was pronounced dead at the scene.

Police arrested 18-year-old Darius Javon Printup on October 15, 2016, and charged him with murder. Investigators said the shooting appeared to stem from a dispute over stolen drugs and may have been a case of mistaken identity or a chosen crime, with the suspect reportedly seeking a man he believed had taken drugs. Prosecutors argued Printup was the gunman at a July 2017 trial, but a Tippecanoe County jury acquitted him and no one else has been convicted in Redmon’s death.

Did anyone in the Lafayette area know Kristi Redmon or see unfamiliar visitors in the neighborhood that night?
