Wendy Brodick was 55 and described as a renowned artist and animal rescue advocate from Otter Lake, Michigan. She was killed on March 30, 2018, in the same incident that claimed the life of her 45-year-old stepson, Peter Brodick Jr. The killings followed a dispute over a tenant at a lake property the Brodicks owned; the tenant, 36-year-old Adam Balcer, reportedly owed about $1,800 in back rent and had been the subject of an eviction. A confrontation earlier in the week escalated, and the suspect allegedly returned to one of the Brodicks’ homes armed with a gun. Peter Jr. was found dead inside a Watertown Township home on a Friday, and Wendy’s body was located two days later near an unused farm silo in Millington Township. Authorities arrested Adam Balcer; he was arraigned on 17 counts including two counts of murder, possession of a weapon by a felon, tampering with evidence, and unlawful imprisonment. At the time he was a parole absconder with a prior larceny conviction and was held in the Tuscola County Jail on $2 million bond.

Does anyone have information about Wendy, Peter Jr., or the events around the eviction that could help investigators or the families?
