This
is
such
a
sad
story
that
sounds
like
an
absolute
nightmare
for
a
family
during
the
holidays.
Former
NFL
footballer
Sergio
Brown
was
a
fugitive
from
justice
until
law
enforcement
caught
up
with
him
in
Mexico
and
had
him
extradited
to
the
United
States
(We’re
side-eyeing
you,
U.S.
government.
Shanquella
Robinson’s
killer
needs
to
be
extradited
to
Mexico!).
BOSSIP
reported
on
the
case
back
in
October
as
Brown
was
charged
with
the
first-degree
murder
of
his
mother
73-year-old
mother
Myrtle
Brown
and
attempting
to
conceal
her
dead
body.
According
to
a
new
CNN
report,
Brown
appeared
in
a
Cook
County
Court
in
Chicago
to
answer
for
the
charges
where
he
pleaded
not
guilty
to
all
counts.
Brown
lived
with
his
mother
in
the
suburb
of
Maywood
and
on
Sept.
16,
2023,
a
former
neighbor
found
her
body
wrapped
inside
of
several
sheets
near
the
house
after
the
family
had
reported
both
persons
missing.
The
Cook
County
Medical
Examiner’s
Office
determined
that
Myrtle
had
died
as
a
result
of
blunt-force
trauma
and
ruled
the
death
a
homicide.
Upon
searching
the
home,
police
realized
that
many
of
Myrtle’s
items
like
iPad,
cell
phone,
and
credit
cards
were
missing.
Sergio
was
seen
by
surveillance
cameras
burning
several
items
in
a
makeshift
fire
pit
on
September
14.
While
it
seems
very
unlikely
that
Sergio
did
not
commit
this
heinous
matricide,
we’ll
let
the
criminal
justice
system
do
what
they
do
while
we
keep
a
close
eye
on
the
details
that
are
released
publicly
about
this
case.
