PENDLETON – Colt Lundy, a convicted murderer from Cromwell, recently was moved to a new correctional facility.
Lundy, 20, was convicted in 2010 for killing his stepdad. Lundy is now classified as a level 2 convict and has been moved from the Wabash Valley Correctional Facility to the Correctional Industrial Facility in Pendleton.
Doug Garrison of the Indiana Department of Corrections advised that this lower-security facility will offer Lundy more programs to benefit him in the future.
Lundy, then 15, and Paul Gingerich, then 12, were found guilty for the April 20, 2010, murder of Phil Danner, 49, Cromwell. Lundy and Gingerich murdered Danner at his home while another juvenile, Chase Williams, then 12, waited outside.

The earliest Lundy and Gingerich may be released is May 2022.
