On February 16, 2013, Gary Nathanial Harris, 51, was murdered in San Diego, California. The incident was orchestrated by his stepdaughter, Brae Hansen, who was 17 years old at the time. Hansen plotted the murder, and her brother, Nathaniel Gann, carried out the act. The two conspired to kill Harris in his own home in the Rolando neighborhood of San Diego.
Initially, Hansen attempted to mislead authorities by staging the murder as a home invasion. Both Hansen and Gann were ultimately convicted; Hansen received 26 years to life, and Gann was sentenced to 25 years to life for their roles in the crime. The motive behind the murder stemmed from Hansen's troubled relationship with her stepfather. The case drew significant attention due to Hansen's young age and the brutality of the crime.
