Victoria Brooks was 18 and home from Canisius College when she and her mother, 35-year-old Christie Brooks, were found murdered in their Wellington Avenue residence in Rochester, New York on November 25, 2016. What began as a Thanksgiving gathering ended with both women fatally attacked in their home.

Investigators focused on Patrick Brooks, the father and Christie’s estranged husband. The Rochester Police Department’s investigation led to an indictment charging him with two counts of second-degree murder. Prosecutors told the court he returned to the home after dinner and fatally stabbed Christie; when Victoria woke, he then stabbed her. A Monroe County jury convicted the 38-year-old on both counts.

A judge imposed two consecutive life sentences with no possibility of parole. Does anyone have memories of Victoria or Christie they can share, or information that might add context to what happened that night?
