Charles Anthony Turner Jr. was 30 when he was found shot to death in the street on the northeast side of Indianapolis on April 16, 2016. The discovery opened a homicide investigation by the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department; in the early stages details were limited and the circumstances of that night were unclear.

Detectives conducted interviews and gathered evidence from the scene over the following months. New evidence later pointed investigators toward a suspect, who was arrested and charged with Turner’s murder. The case proceeded to trial, where the prosecution presented evidence and witnesses testified about the events and the effect of Turner’s death. A jury returned a guilty verdict in the case.

Anyone who knew Charles Turner, was on Indianapolis’s northeast side that night, or has information relevant to the homicide is asked to come forward.
