Sheila Brady, 73, and her husband Roy Brady, 72, were found dead at their Kellam Road home in Virginia Beach on July 15, 2019, after a welfare check. Neighbors described the couple as a sweet, peaceful, frail elderly pair who had lived in the house for more than three decades. Sheila enjoyed the beach, beading, and knitting, and was especially devoted to her family and grandchildren.

Investigators identified the couple’s 44-year-old son, Christopher Shawn Brady, who had been living with them, as the primary suspect. Christopher’s daughter, who was in the house that day, said she heard loud voices and then gunshots and later saw her grandmother lying in a pool of blood. Police say the suspect left with his daughter, tried to conceal the firearm by disassembling it and disposing of the barrel while crossing the Hampton Roads Bridge-Tunnel, and was later taken into custody; parts of the gun were recovered from his truck and matched to the killings.

The motive remains unclear. Does anyone have information about the Bradys, their neighborhood, or what led up to that July day?
