Description
On October 1, 1986, a house located at 415 North Denny Street in Indianapolis was destroyed by an explosion. Neighboring houses were also damaged. The house was owned by Dorothy Lewis and leased to Neuhausel and his wife Gail. On the date of the explosion, Gail and Neuhausel were in the process of divorcing. Gail and the two children lived in the house; Neuhausel lived in Ohio. However, he was found severely burned outside the house following the explosion. Neuhausel explained he had been in the house and had lit a cigarette before the explosion. He later told a detective he went to the house in the early morning and went to sleep on the couch. He awoke around 8:15 a.m., lit a cigarette, and the explosion occurred. Days later, he advised an investigating officer he attempted suicide by opening a gas line in the house before he went to sleep. The investigation determined that fires had been set deliberately in four separate places within the house and that a gas line had been opened with a pair of channel lock pliers. One of the fires ignited the seeping gas and caused the explosion.
