Shannon ’Shay Shay’ Dawn Kleeman was 21 when she was found dead on March 28, 2014, in the basement of her stepmother’s home on North Linwood Avenue in Indianapolis. She had been staying there to care for the pets while her stepmother was hospitalized. A neighbor reported hearing loud banging and then screams from Shannon’s sister before the discovery.

Shannon had been sexually assaulted and shot in the head at close range with a twelve-gauge shotgun. Investigators found DNA linking Morice Ervin to the crime scene — on Shannon’s breast, under her fingernails, and on vaginal swabs. There were no signs of forced entry. Ervin, who lived next door and had visited the house the night before, was arrested, tried, and a jury found him guilty on all charges. He received an aggregate sentence of 135 years in the Department of Correction. The shotgun used, described as belonging to Shannon’s late father and known to Ervin’s whereabouts, was not recovered.

Did anyone in the neighborhood know Shannon’s routines or recall seeing someone with a shotgun around that time?
