On November 23, 2014 family members found 58-year-old Grover L. Brown dead in his home on Garr Road in Lincoln Parish, Louisiana. Responding deputies determined Brown, an African American man active in television production and a member of Zion Traveler Baptist Church, had been fatally shot in the head.

Jackson was taken into custody and charged with second-degree murder; multiple agencies including the Lincoln Parish, Jackson Parish and Ouachita Parish sheriff’s offices, plus West Monroe and Ruston police, assisted with the investigation.

The arrest represented a major development in a case that shocked Brown’s community. If anyone knew Grover Brown, his routines, or has information about the events leading up to November 23, 2014, contact the Lincoln Parish Sheriff’s Office.
