What high school did the killing of Scott Christopher Nelson and Richard David Stephenson occur?
Trinity murders The Trinity murders occurred in Louisville, Kentucky on September 29, 1984, and are named after Trinity High School. Two 17-year-old Trinity High students, Scott Christopher Nelson and Richard David Stephenson, became lost on their way to a high school football game where Trinity was playing DuPont Manual High School at Manual's football stadium on East Burnett Avenue. Nelson and Stephenson stopped at a Moby Dick restaurant at Logan and Oak Streets to get directions, where Victor Taylor and his cousin George Wade said they would lead them to the stadium if they were given a ride. Nelson and Stephenson were instead taken to a vacant lot in the 300 block of Ardella Ct. near the football stadium of Louisville Male High School where they were forced to take off their clothes, hand over their personal property and were bound and gagged. After Victor Taylor sexually assaulted one of them, Nelson and Stephenson were shot in the back of the head to avoid the identification of Taylor and Wade.
Debra Nelson Debra Steinberg Nelson is a Seminole County judge of the 18th Judicial Circuit Court, in Florida. She has presided on some relatively high-profile cases such as a baby-kidnapping case in 2008. In 2013, she was put in the national spotlight again, as she was the presiding judge in the controversial self-defense case known as the "State of Florida v. George Zimmerman". Her reputation, among some, as a tough-on-defendants judge, has been analyzed in light of her handling of the case where George Zimmerman fatally shot the 17-year-old Trayvon Martin.
