Reginald Thomas Brown, 36, was one of two people shot to death inside a Milwaukee home during the early morning hours of December 8, 2016. Brown had been spending the night at the home of his girlfriend, Roberta Newman, near Appleton Avenue and Florist Avenue; both victims were found dead in bed beneath the covers with multiple gunshot wounds. A teenage son in the house heard the shooting, briefly glimpsed a single dark figure leaving, and called 911.

Investigators recovered 18 spent cartridge casings upstairs and determined the shooting appeared intentional — possibly giving the victims little or no chance to react. Ballistic testing linked those casings to a shots-fired incident in Chicago, making Newman's prior ties to Chicago a line of inquiry.

Does anyone who knew either victim or who has information about Newmans connections to Chicago or the December 8 scene have tips for detectives?
