Sergio Brown Case: What We Know

Many questions still remain about what happened roughly a month ago in Maywood, Illinois. Relatives reported Sergio and Myrtle missing on September 16. Myrtle's sister said she had spoken with her since September 14. Later that day, police found Myrtle beside a creek near her home. The county medical examiner ruled that she "suffered multiple injuries during an assault" and ruled her death a homicide.

Meanwhile, Brown emerged a few days later to vocally doubt his mother's death, calling it "fake news". He also alleged that federal agencies were after him and in one video, quoted the film Finding Nemo. However, subsequent videos showed Brown partying and generally living it up. The charges he is facing have not been made public. However, sources told TMZ that Brown has been charged in connection with his mother's death. This remains a developing story and we'll have any updates as they emerge.
