Edward Brown, 54, of Cleveland, Ohio, was killed on June 18, 2018, in a violent altercation with his son, Devontey Brown. Cuyahoga County prosecutors say Devontey shot his father to gain access to his money, then covered the body in chemicals, buried it in the backyard, and took Edward’s wallet, credit cards, and phone. Devontey was later arrested in Michigan after a domestic violence call and confessed to the killing.

The case was one of 129 homicides in Cleveland in 2018 and drew attention because the victim and the accused were family and the motive was alleged to be financial. The legal proceedings resulted in a life sentence with the possibility of parole after at least 18 years.

Did anyone in the Cleveland area know Edward or have information about him or his relationships that could shed light on this case?
