PENDLETON — Colt Lundy, who at the age of 15 was sentenced to 30 years, with five years to be served on probation, in the death of his stepfather, Philip Danner, at their Enhanted Hills home, has been moved to a different prison. Lundy was recently transferred from the Wabash Valley Level 4 Facility to the Correctional Industrial Facility, in Fall Creek Township, near Pendleton.
While Wabash Valley Correctional Facility, south of Terre Haute, was a maximum and minimum security facility, the Correctional Industrial Facility is a medium-security housing roughly 1,398 male inmates.
Lundy who is now 20 year’s old, is scheduled to be released May 30, 2022. He was sentenced on Sept. 27, 2010.
Lundy pleaded guilty to a charge of conspiracy to commit murder, through a plea agreement on Sept. 8, 2010. He was initially charged with murder and aiding or causing murder of the April 20, 2010, of his Danner.
Also charged in the case was Paul Gingerich, who was 12 at the time. Both Lundy and Gingerich were waived to adult court and charged with murder. A third individual, Chase Williams, also 12 years old, was sentenced to the South Bend Juvenile Detention facility in May 2010, on a charge of aiding or causing murder. He was never waived to adult court.
Gingerich, now 17, also pleading guilty to conspiracy to commit murder, received the same sentence as Lundy and is currently at the Pendleton Juvenile Facility. He will be moved to an adult prison at the age of 18.
