On the 12/09/2019, after not hearing from her son, Brandon Embry, for a couple of days Sarah, and her family were worried. Sarah decided to pay her son a visit in Asheboro, NC, USA. What she discovered at his apartment that day, no mother should ever have to face. Brandon is found, clinging to life. He was gasping for air, unconscious, and what appeared to be, severely beaten.

Sadly, on 16/09/2019, Brandon succumbs to his injuries and dies at 8.57pm

Three days later an autopsy is performed including a 2000 panel toxicology screen

Brandon’s family visit his apartment on 18-19/19 to begin the agonising job of cleaning up the aftermath. What they saw was both horrifying and heart-breaking.

The place was trashed and there was blood in multiple rooms. On the walls, the bed, bed linen, pillows, inside and outside a closet door, window ledge, and blind, above the toilet and on the cracked bathroom mirror. There was also an unknown green substance on the pillows and what looked like water running through the blood spatter in the bathroom. There was hair and matter in some of the blood. There was blood spatter that reached almost to the ceiling. There was also a dead blow hammer that looked like it had small bloody finger prints over it. There also appears to be dried blood found in Brandon’s truck. (See photos)

Understandably concerned, Brandon’s family called the Asheboro police department to discuss their concerns that none of this was either taken into evidence, swabbed or photographed. CSI attend the scene and confirm a possible ‘clean up’ this is also when the family are informed that the police suspect Brandon was taking meth and in a drug induced craze, ‘beat himself to death’ (Toxicology will later prove this meth theory as false. Brandon had no illicit drugs in his system) the autopsy concluded that Brandon died of ‘Pneumonia’ The lead detective then goes on to state that Brandon had taken ‘synthetic marijuana’ despite no evidence of this substance being found in Brandon’s system, evidence log or search warrants.

07/02/2020 the medical examiner amends the autopsy to ‘undetermined’ after a conversation with the lead detective about her ‘synthetic marijuana’ theory. Despite no evidence to support this. Brandon’s case was ultimately closed on the 27/02/2020

What truly happened to Brandon that day? It sadly still remains a torment and mystery to his family.

“Brandon - a beautiful child and astonishingly smart! His first sweet words were at just a mere few months, then delightful articulate sentences before his first birthday. He was full of surprises, and as rambunctious as a boy could be!
He was gifted with language and expression, so a long conversation with Brandon was time well spent. As masterful as he was with words, I myself cannot find the words to describe the depth of pain of losing him and wishing I could talk with him once again.
He should be here” –Sarah Lee, Brandon’s Mother*

Very strange case, indeed. I feel so sad for his mother :(

I did find a couple of news reports to link

Asheboro mother wants answers in son's mysterious death | myfox8.com

Asheboro Police continue to investigate unusual death of local man
 
I never say never and I never say always, definitely something to look into, but Ive seen some wild stuff, with, subjects high on Deuce, guys throwing themselves, down flights of cement steps, smashing their heads into the ground, one guy hang jumped off an overpass.

Ive seen the addiction to the synthetic stuff first hand and its really bad

There was no evidence of any kind of illicit drugs in Brandons toxicology screen. There were no drugs taken into evidence from his apartment, (see evidence log in photos) he had to undergo multiple drug tests for his job on a regular basis and his family and his friends, whom he had good relationships with do not report any disturbing or unusual behaviour.

It is a very mysterious case. Brandon's mum has documented everything and gathered so much information and evidence and the police just won't listen. The second news report that you linked here is not factual unfortunately. Brandon's voice Fb page is definitely worth looking at

I was responding to this comment on the original post

"The lead detective then goes on to state that Brandon had taken ‘synthetic marijuana’ despite no evidence of this substance being found in Brandon’s system, evidence log or search warrants."

"K2" can only be detected up to 72 hours after use so if he was alive for more then 72 hours after he was found unresponsive the compound could'e been metabolized, where they came up with that, however isnt stated anywhere that ive read, Id be intereted in how they came to this conclusion

But I can tell you first hand, subject high on synthetics, will hurt themselves, you can see it if you go on youtube theres plenty of videos of it. I once saw a young male run and dive head first down a flight of concrete steps , there was 23 feet of blood, on the steps alone then he started crawling up the street, was finally secured after he was pulled off the top of a minivan, he was touching cars, buildings, people, he had knocked out 5 teeth, had a fractured orbital socket , and almost lost his bottom lip, the blood trail from the had wounds spanned a distance covered over 130 feet . SO in an apartment it could be horrific, that's just speaking to the possibility of it being a factor, Im not saying this is the case.

The COD is listed a pneumonia, which seems to indicate that in the opinion of the ME, none of the injuries in and of themselves themselves were life threatening.

I also read there was no signs of forced entry and that a deadbolt had been secured, and I read nowhere that there was any evidence of any type of robbery.

As always a thorough Victim study needs to be done to determine anything in his background or life/lifestyle, that could be the reason why something could've happened to him , that means family friends, employer etc.. all have to be interviewed. Emails, text, phone calls , all have to be scrutinized.

He had a spare key that was missing and to this day has not been found (to my knowledge). The self proclaimed "girlfriend" mentions to his mum after his death that she knew where it was kept. She also tells his mum about "dreams" she has which describes details of the crime scene that no one could have known unless they were there. All the text and voice recordings of these conversations are on her FB page

None of that however answers the questions though.

She could admit it, and if there no evidence to tie her to the scene, theres not much you can do except interview her .

Its a strange case, also with that amount of blood all over there was no evidence anyone walked through it ?.

The article from the Courier-Tribune of Asheboro printed some misinformation that is slanderous. They did not fact check with the family only parroted what the police told them. Please take that article with a grain of salt. I have documentation to back everything up.

There was evidence of a clean up. Detective Sudduth (who was taken off the case) had went back to the apartment and confirmed blood had been cleaned up. Also, a bottle of bleach lay in the hallway with other cleaning items which is in the crime scene photos. There was a spray running through the blood in the bathroom but no spray bottle in the crime scene photos. There were two seals for bleach and blood that is to be tested just found in his vehicle. Thank you for commenting!

Yes, she knew where and how his body was found she said through a dream. Things I didn’t know until almost a year later when I see the crime scene photos. She also knew “something” happened in the bathroom from her dream. The bathroom was destroyed. Photos are on his page. Thank you!!!!!!

She was at his apartment on his birthday. Her clothes and beauty products were in his apartment too! There is a crime scene photo of the detective holding up a bra found. She contacted the family to ask to get her things back the very day we started collecting his things.

Walk me through this or send me a PM.
 
Inside the victims vehicle, or the detectives ?

Why was the detective removed from this case?

Brandon's vehicle. The detective treating it as a homicide originally was removed and placed on traffic. I believe that the family were not told why. The detective that took over, was not of the same opinion as the first and the case went a completely different way.
 
To the best of my recall, a 2000 panel drug screen is a partial screen. They can screen for upwards of 3000 substances. Did the ME's office not want to pay for the more extensive screening? How about a private autopsy?
 
What a baffling heartbreaking case. :(

I have so much respect and admiration for Brandon's brilliant and courageous mother. She has done a very detailed, well organised investigation, showing great determination, in spite of the profound grief she must be feeling. My heart goes out to her and her family and I will share the FB links to try and spread the word.
