Name: Shirley Brewer.
Died: December 25, 2019.
Age at death: 48.
Cause of death: Gunshot.
Location: Cullom, Illinois, USA.
Disability: Depression.
Details:
Shirley’s husband shot and killed her, her son Christian, 27, and her neighbor, Norman Walker, age 51. In an attempt to cover up the murder, he pointed out Shirley’s history of depression and suicidal crisis, and claimed that she had killed everyone else before committing suicide. But when he called emergency services, responders found him washing bloody clothing, and the jury did not believe his assertion that he had slept through the gunshots, especially since he had gunpowder residue on his hands. Shirley’s husband was convicted of multiple murders.
Case Status:
Clifford Brewer (Husband), convicted of murder, sentenced to three life terms plus twenty years.
