Central Florida Man Guilty of Murder, Attempted Manslaughter of Another Victim

A Central Florida man was found guilty of murdering one man and attempted manslaughter of another victim in a shooting.




This month, jurors delivered their verdict in the 2018 murder case of 47-year-old Anthony Brady. After reviewing compelling evidence and listening to witness testimony, jurors found 39-year-old Brandon Lee Brown guilty of Second-Degree Murder.

Brown was additionally convicted of Attempted Manslaughter, Aggravated Assault with a Firearm, Possession of a Firearm by a Felon, and Failure to Appear.

“Justice has been served for the family of Anthony Brady thanks to the jury’s verdict,” said Fifth Judicial Circuit State Attorney Bill Gladson. “While this decision still cannot bring back the victim, it does ensure that the perpetrator is held accountable for his heinous crimes.”

On May 22, 2018, Marion County Sheriff’s Office deputies responded to a call for service in reference to a shooting that had just occurred off SE 145th Place in Summerfield. Upon arrival, deputies located two victims with gunshot wounds.

The first victim, Anthony Brady, was observed to have a gunshot wound to the upper thigh area. He was trauma alerted in critical condition to the hospital where he was later pronounced deceased a week later.

The second victim, who suffered a gunshot wound to their back extremities, was also transported for medical treatment but survived.

During the investigation, officials were able to determine that Brown had traveled to the residence where the victims were, engaging in a verbal altercation before shooting them both. The second victim was able to positively identify Brown as the shooter due to prior altercations and run-ins with the defendant.




This case was successfully prosecuted by Assistant State Attorney Janine Nixon.
