The Brenda Sue Brown story is a cold case true crime from 1966 that captivated the small town of Shelby, North Carolina, and continues to draw attention today. Eleven-year-old Brenda Sue Brown disappeared while walking her younger sister to a Head Start class. Her body was later found in a wooded area, having been brutally beaten to death with a rock.The case remained unsolved for over 40 years, with evidence going missing and initial suspects never leading to an arrest. The case was finally reopened after a deathbed confession from a man who claimed he and another man, Thurman Price, were responsible. This confession, along with other new evidence, led to a renewed investigation and a trial, but the case remained complex and controversial.
