Indiana : Carmen Van Huss

It has been almost 30 years since 19 year old Carmen Hope Van Huss was raped and murdered inside her studio apartment on the north side of Indianapolis. Neighbors reported hearing Carmen talking and laughing with a male, then hearing signs of a struggle and her yelling “Get off of me”. Police were not called but a noise complaint with the building’s superintendent was filed. When the responsible teen didn’t show up for work and her father was called as the emergency contact, he found his daughter inside her home brutally raped and stabbed inside. Botched DNA testing and interdepartmental drama led to Carmen’s case remaining unsolved for nearly 3 decades.
