Kenneth Brown was a 27-year-old employee at a Jack in the Box in the Phoenix metropolitan area who was killed during a late-night attack on May 19, 2002. Brown was working the late shift with co-workers Beatriz Alvarado and Fausto Jimenez at the 24-hour restaurant at Main Street and Lindsay Road in Mesa when the three were forced into the walk-in freezer and shot. Brown died inside the freezer almost immediately; Alvarado was found badly wounded outside the store and told a customer and an officer that two others were still inside, and Jimenez was later found dead.

Investigators found shell casings and bullet fragments in the freezer and evidence that several cash registers had been pried open, though only a few hundred dollars were taken and the safe was untouched. Attention centered on a former employee, Christopher Allen Hargrave, who had been fired weeks earlier, and his associate Steve Alan Boggs. A Taurus handgun pawned shortly after the shootings was matched to casings and fragments from the scene, and Hargrave was linked to use of Jimenez’s bank card. Both men were charged in connection with the triple homicide. Does anyone who worked at that Jack in the Box or knew the employees remember anything unusual in the weeks before May 19, 2002?
