Erbie Thompson, a 45-year-old White man, was killed in his Indianapolis home on May 31, 2016 during an attempted robbery at the east-side residence he shared with his girlfriend. Two individuals, Jeremiah Walker and Jessica Figueiredo, entered the home with the intent to rob Thompson; he was fatally shot during the incident.

Thompson’s girlfriend memorized the suspects’ vehicle license plate, which helped lead investigators to Walker and Figueiredo. Police found a receipt for zip ties in Figueiredo’s vehicle, and security footage showed the pair purchasing zip ties earlier that day. Figueiredo later pleaded guilty to attempted armed robbery, agreed to testify against Walker, and received a 16-year prison term. Walker was convicted of multiple counts, including murder, robbery, criminal confinement, and carrying a handgun without a license, and was sentenced to 62 years in prison.

Did anyone who knew Erbie or was on Indianapolis’s east side that day see anything that could add detail to what happened?
