Breakup Turns Deadly: Indiana Man Convicted of Ex-Girlfriend's Murder

On June 1, 2023, the body of 54-year-old Melisa Hansboro was discovered on the floor of her Indianapolis home. Her ex-boyfriend, Jerry Lewis, has now been convicted of her murder.

According to the investigation, Hansboro was moving into her new residence just hours before her 6-year-old grandson found her lifeless body. On the day of the incident, Hansboro's daughter and grandchildren arrived at her home and grew concerned when they found the residence locked and her car missing.

When the daughter tried to call Hansboro, she heard the victim's cellphone ringing inside the house, but it went unanswered. The family then entered the home, where they discovered Hansboro with a gunshot wound to the back of her neck. Gunshot residue at the scene indicated that the victim had been shot at close range.
