12 Year Old Lifer

Paul Gingerich and Colt Lundy were aged just 12 and 15 when they shot and killed Colt’s stepfather Phil Danner. Both were tried and sentenced as adults for murder, making Paul the youngest person to ever be waived to adult court in Indiana. The film follows Paul’s historic appeal to be retried as a juvenile, with unprecedented access to Indiana’s prisons and courts. Commissioned by Channel 4’s acclaimed True Stories strand in the UK and A&E in the USA.
