Anthony Stuart "Tony" Craigmiles




 On June 30, 1993, at about 5:30 p.m. the wife of 27-year-old Stuart "Tony" Craigmiles would find him dead in their home about 5 miles west of Kampsville, Illinois. Somebody had shot him in the head with a shotgun.

This murder occurred during the Great Flood of 1993. Their home being in a remote area meant that the roads were closed and the only route to the home was through country back roads. At the time he was working at the Illinois Department of Corrections.
