"Four men are all standing trial separately for the October 1, 2019 murder of Tushar Atre: Stephen Lindsay, brothers Kurtis and Kaleb Charters, and Joshua Camps. The first to face trial back in January and February was Lindsay, and he was convicted in March of home-invasion robbery, kidnapping, and murder. Kurtis Charters had his trial last month, and he was convicted of the same charges. Both men were sentenced to life without parole."
"Lindsay had been an employee of the victim, Atre, along with Kaleb Charters, at Atre's cannabis business and farm, called Interstitial Systems. As prosecutors have explained at trial, both men were accused by Atre of taking the keys to a farm vehicle, something that Atre responded to by stopping payment on two paychecks he had issued to them after they decided to stop working at the farm, causing the checks to bounce."
"Atre then, allegedly, forced Kaleb Charters and Lindsay to do hundreds of pushups in front of other employees, telling them this was the price they had to pay to get their paychecks this was after they had returned to the farm and located the missing keys. As has previously been reported, Lindsay was the brother-in-law of the Charters brothers, having married their sister,"
Four men—Stephen Lindsay, Kurtis Charters, Kaleb Charters, and Joshua Camps—face separate trials for the October 1, 2019 murder of Tushar Atre. Lindsay and Kurtis Charters were convicted earlier this year of home-invasion robbery, kidnapping, and murder and received life without parole. Lindsay and Kaleb had worked at Atre’s cannabis business, Interstitial Systems. Atre accused them of taking farm vehicle keys and stopped payment on two paychecks after they quit, causing the checks to bounce. Atre allegedly forced Kaleb and Lindsay to do hundreds of pushups as punishment, after which the suspects allegedly plotted to rob Atre at his Pleasure Point home; Kaleb drove the group and his attorney contends he was unaware of the plan.
