Kelly M. Brackin, 52, was found dead in her Alcoa, Tennessee, apartment on March 1, 2019. Officers responded for a welfare check, made entry when no one answered, and discovered she had suffered multiple gunshot wounds.

Investigators connected the killing to Brackin’s 18-year-old son, Johnathon A. Sellers. In a separate incident that same morning in a neighboring county, Sellers led police on a high-speed pursuit that began as a suspected DUI. His vehicle was stopped by spike strips, and after he emerged armed with a shotgun he was shot by officers, received medical treatment, and was taken into custody.

Sellers was initially charged with criminal homicide and held on a one million dollar bond. In December 2019 a Blount County grand jury returned an indictment upgrading the charge to first-degree murder and adding felony murder, especially aggravated robbery, and theft of property counts.

Did anyone in the area know Kelly or have information about her last known movements before March 1, 2019?
