Man sentenced to 110 years for 2023 double murder in Indianapolis
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — A 45-year-old Indianapolis man was sentenced Monday to 110 years in prison for a double murder in 2023.
Shawn Barnett, 23, and Larry Moorman, 42, died shortly before noon Jan. 12, 2023, at the scene of a shooting in the 200 block of Walcott Street. That is in a downtown residential area near the intersection of East Ohio Street and North Walcott Street.
Jermaine Randle, 45, was sentenced after a jury found him guilty of two counts of murder on April 2 in Marion Superior Court 7.
Marion County Prosecutor Ryan Mears, a Democrat, wrote in a news release issued Monday, “The defendant will spend more than a century behind bars for the unprovoked tragedy he inflicted on these men and their families. Our witnesses’ commitment to Larry and Shawn to see this through was the difference maker in this case.”
A witness at the scene immediately identified Randle as the suspect and described the vehicle he was driving. According to the witness, shouting could be heard from an apartment followed by several gunshots, and a man was seen fleeing down the steps before Randle’s vehicle pulled away. Other witnesses corroborated the identification of the vehicle Randle used to arrive at and flee the scene. Officers used license plate-reading cameras to find Randle’s vehicle just hours after the shooting near West 79th Street and North Michigan Road, leading to the arrest of Randle.

Philip Rivers fell one throw short of storybook ending in his couch-to-Colts return
He had one last throw left in that 44-year-old wing of his. For most of the afternoon, he’d been able to fool Father Time and frighten 68,771 Seattle Seahawks fans inside Lumen Field who’d come to bury Philip Rivers and, instead, watched him push their football team to the very brink of an impossible upset.
There had been a moment when it seemed Rivers might actually pull off the damn thing, too. That was with 1 minute and 55 seconds left in the game. The Colts led for so much of the game and were behind Seattle 15-13, but the ball was in the old man’s hands now. All day, he’d been careful and efficient. It got him a 13-3 lead at one point. Now, he needed to make a play.
And damned if he didn’t make a play.
Damned if he didn’t throw a 16-yard back-shoulder special to wide receiver Alec Pierce. Damned if that ball didn’t mean the Seahawks were now going to burn all of their timeouts because, in the NFL in 2025, just making it past midfield — as that throw did — means you’re in field goal range.

Philip Rivers comes out of retirement for Indianapolis Colts: NFL world reacts
The Indianapolis Colts have cooled considerably as the season has progressed, going from the NFL’s best record to out of the playoff picture entering Week 15 action.
But one of today’s notable storylines is the return of quarterback Philip Rivers after five years away from the NFL. He’s on the Colts’ active roster as they prepare to play the Seattle Seahawks.
The 44-year-old was on Lumen Field hours before kickoff, taking mental reps.
Colts QB Daniel Jones suffered a season-ending injury last week, and backup Riley Leonard suffered a knee injury, though he remains on the active roster. With Brett Rypien the only other QB on their roster and list of available QBs lacking, the Colts called the last signal-caller to lead them in a playoff game (after the 2020 season).
His comeback has piqued the interest of a former Colts coach and players, his former teammates on the Chargers, former NFL quarterbacks and even those from outside football.
