Laura Lynn Wilkins, 41, of Crawfordville, Florida, was found dead at the home she shared with her boyfriend on October 25, 2015. Law enforcement described the scene as showing evidence of a violent struggle; Wilkins died of a gunshot wound and a .357 revolver believed to be the murder weapon was recovered from her boyfriend’s car.

Charles Clayton Brow, 53, was arrested shortly after the killing following an altercation at a Waffle House in Navarre, Florida. During transport to jail he voluntarily confessed to killing Wilkins. He was charged with second-degree murder and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. Reports note Brow had prior domestic violence arrests involving Wilkins and a pending domestic violence case earlier in 2015.

Wilkins was survived by two sons, aged 16 and 18; her funeral was held October 29, 2015. Anyone who knew Laura or has information about the case is asked to come forward.
