On the evening of August 25, 2014, 56-year-old Gary Helman was shot and killed during a confrontation at his mother’s home on Doswell Boulevard in Cromwell, Indiana. Bail enforcement agents Daniel Foster, Michael C. Thomas, and Tad Martin went to the house to serve a felony warrant for Helman’s failure to appear on charges of battery resulting in bodily injury and resisting law enforcement.

A gun battle followed; Gary Helman was killed in a back bedroom and his twin brother, Larry Helman, was seriously wounded on the back porch. No criminal charges were filed against the three agents. The Helman family later sued the bail bonds company, the agents, and their insurer alleging negligence, battery, trespass, and intimidation; after a four-day trial a jury found for the defendants and an appeal by the family was denied.

Does anyone have additional information about the events at the Cromwell residence or about Gary and Larry Helman’s situation before that day?
