On October 14, 1988, 23-year-old Michael L. Robinson was shot and killed during a family dispute in Burnettsville, Indiana. The confrontation involved Michael and his uncle, William R. Robinson; reports say both men had been drinking when the argument escalated and William produced a weapon and shot his nephew, causing fatal injuries.

Police responded to the scene, identified William R. Robinson as the sole suspect, and took him into custody. A grand jury later returned an indictment charging William with murder, and he was ordered held pending further proceedings. The shooting left the small White County community and Michael’s family facing a sudden loss.

Does anyone have memories of Michael or information about the incident that could add to the record?
