In the autumn of 2014, the life of 23-year-old Dominic Amey Jr. was tragically cut short in Indianapolis. On October 8, he and another man, 32-year-old Eric Travelle Mathis, were discovered deceased in what police would investigate as a double homicide. The specific details of how the two men lost their lives have not been widely publicized in the available information.
The bodies of Amey and Mathis were found on Wallace Avenue on the east side of the city.
The discovery prompted an investigation by local law enforcement as they worked to piece together the events that led to the two men's deaths. In the days following the incident, the Marion County Coroner's Office formally identified both Amey and Mathis as the victims of homicide.
In the immediate aftermath, family and friends of Dominic Amey planned a prayer vigil, seeking solace and pleading with the community for any information that might lead to an arrest. Despite these pleas and the ongoing police investigation, information regarding any potential suspects or arrests in the case has not been made publicly available in the years since the incident. The case remains a painful and unresolved chapter for the families of both Dominic Amey and Eric Mathis.
