Oh Brother!

Vincent Brothers is in the news again. Shann Kern, the mother of the only child Vincent didn’t kill, has frozen his assets, so it looks like his attorney may have to work for free. I can’t believe this guy still hasn’t even had a preliminary hearing. He’s been in jail for a year already.

Further down in the article Kern says she believes Brothers has “at least three more children” still living. Holy crap! This guy was impregnating women all over the place.

I was sort of joking when I said “the only child he didn’t kill.” He is innocent until proven guilty. But I don’t think it’s looking too good for him. His mother-in-law, estranged wife, and three kids were found murdered in their home back in 2003. Conveniently, Brothers was out of town at the time. Not so conveniently, the rental car he was driving was found to have an exorbitant number of miles on it. Enough miles to drive from Ohio where he was visiting his brother, to Bakersfield and back again. After investigating him and following him around for a year, he was finally arrested in April 2004.

Since then Brothers’ brother in Ohio claims that he was coerced into saying Vincent asked him to use his credit card and sign his name while he was gone. Now he says that Brothers was there the whole time. Smells a little fishy to me.

Wouldn’t it be cool if Court TV came to town and we got to watch the whole trial on cable? Sounds like it’s going to be a very interesting case.
