Description
On Oct. 21, a new trial began for Raymond Childs III, who is charged with murdering most of his family in 2021.
On July 23, a judge declared a mistrial in Childs' murder trial.
The Marion County Prosecutor's Office confirmed this was declared after something that was said during witness testimony.
Childs faces six murder charges in connection with the crime carried out at an east Indianapolis home, in the 3500 block of Adams Street, near East 34th Street and North Sherman Drive.
Childs is accused of shooting everyone in the house in the early morning hours of Jan. 24, 2021.
Prosecutors said Childs started upstairs and finished in the basement, killing his parents, Raymond and Kizzie Childs; his 13-year-old sister, Rita; his 18-year-old brother, Elijah; his brother's girlfriend, Kiara Hawkins; and her baby boy, who was just days away from being delivered.
Childs faces a maximum sentence of life in prison without parole if convicted.
