Terence Lamar Brown Jr., 24, of Lehigh Acres, Florida, was shot and killed on May 17, 2020, on the front lawn of his home after a dispute over explicit photos. Investigators say Brown had met Benjamin Paige online and the two had been intimate; Paige allegedly demanded that Brown delete photos and, when Brown refused, shot him. Brown and Paige had known each other for about a week and Brown left home that day expecting to meet Paige for a romantic encounter that instead ended in violence.

The Lee County Sheriff’s Office identified Paige as the primary suspect; he was arrested and charged with second-degree murder and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. Court records show Paige was found guilty of second-degree murder in April 2022 and sentenced to 35 years in prison. Brown’s death deeply affected his family and the Lehigh Acres community.

If anyone knew Terence, his movements that day, or has information about the meeting with Paige, please share what you know.
