During the early morning hours of February 4, 2007, Donald Brown, 39, was found dead in his home in the 9700 block of NE 104th Court. He was discovered by his girlfriend when she returned home late that night. Brown had been stabbed repeatedly and is believed to have been attacked in his bedroom after being awakened. He was scheduled to work an early shift at Frito Lay the following morning. 

Investigators learned that Brown had been involved in several relationships that created tension and animosity in his personal life, which they consider potentially relevant to the case. His homicide remains unsolved.
