Summary

2019 - Asheboro, North Carolina. (part two) The medical examiner said that 33-year-old Brandon Embry died of pneumonia. His body was cut and bruised head-to-toe, and his face was covered with blood. His manner of death? Natural Causes. But nobody can explain the injuries on Brandon, not even the medical examiner. Could he really have done all of this to himself? While the police were conducting their investigation, Brandon's mother, Sarah, was conducting her own. And at the center of it? A woman named Cassandra who claims she was the love of Brandon's life. So why hadn't Sarah heard of her? The more Sarah digs, the more bizarre things become.... and she can't help but wonder if Cassandra is connected. This is part two (of three) of the case of Brandon Embry. All sources for this episode can be found on murdershetold.com.
