Brittany Snelbaker is a woman from Indianapolis who was arrested and charged with murder and arson. She was connected to the murder of 24-year-old Charles Burgess Jr., who was found dead inside a house that had caught fire. The incident took place on East Vermont Street, near Sherman Drive, on November 5, 2021. The death of Charles Burgess Jr. was later ruled a homicide due to multiple traumas.
According to court records, a friend of the suspect told police the killing took place because Burgess owed Snelbaker money for living in the home. Surveillance videos allegedly showed Snelbaker walking to her dad’s house in the same neighborhood, wearing a Halloween mask as a disguise, where she grabbed a gas can and returned to set the fire.
On July 11, 2024, Brittany Snelbaker pled guilty to one count of murder and her arson charge was dismissed. She was subsequently sentenced to 50 years in prison.
