First all local accounts are being locked out regardless
of them being used or not, in some instances accounts that
have never even been logged into have been locked out.
Second, I have made attempts to change the account lockout
policy to no avail. My question is, what would be locking
out all Local Accounts regardless of their group
membership?

Marss.

Local groups only? Domain users as well? If everyone is getting locked out
it is usually a denial of service attack. Make sure that all machines are up
to date with critical updates and virus definitions and see the account
lockout whitepaper here:

Hope this helps,
