The Extensive Details of the Grace Brown Murder, and What Really Happened on the Lake That Day
A News Article by Gracee Myers
BREAKING NEWS… A death has occured this week on the calm waters of Big Moose Lake in New York. Two guests went out on a boat, but none returned. There has been no evidence of the second guest, Carl Gram, later found out to be Chester Gillette. The woman he went out onto the lake with, Grace Brown, was found dead with a head wound. They were staying at Glenmore Hotel, the most exquisite hotel of Big Moose Lake, before she died, and he went missing. There has been no evidence of him drowning, but after further research officials have found that there is a great chance “Carl” isn’t dead. Grace Brown gave one of the employee’s …show more content…

One of the main questions that comes from this evidence is… What happened to Chester Gillette? He took all of his belongings with him out on the boat, so he would not have to return back to the Glenmore after she was murdered. It became obvious once the letters were turned in that this was no accident and that it was a planned murder. There would be little blood with the way she was murdered, so it would be very easy to cover up as an accident, but since the letters are in the government's hands, we have more evidence than he intended. One of the questions that has come from all of this evidence is… Did Grace Brown know that Chester intended to kill her and her baby out on the lake that day, or did she just think he wanted to meet up with her to run away so they could raise the child together? There is not enough evidence to provide an answer for these questions, but based on the fact that she intended to have the letters burned, there was probably at least a seed of an idea that he planned to do that. So with that, the murder of Grace Brown has been solved, but this will be a known murder for an extensive period of time, because there are so many unknowns to the case. The most helpful thing for the officials to find would

They got one step closer when the next victim they found, 29-year-old Jimmy Payne, had hairs and fibers on his clothes that were identical to those found in Williams’ house and on his dog.

  • Tara Brown Murder Case Summary

    334 Words  | 2 Pages

    In the case of Tara Brown’s murder, various groups of individuals are affected. As well as maintaining principles of fair punishment and deterrence, the criminal justice system has to consider perceptions of the victim’s family (secondary victim), the community’s demand for crime prevention, and the offender’s rights to a fair court hearing. The most likely outcome is imprisonment for Lionel John Patea due to committing an indictable offence. It is important to note that if this was only a case of domestic abuse without murder, it would utilise more time, effort and expenses to come to a resolution. This is due to the different circumstances and degree of abuse that the judge has to assess.
