Cold Case
THE CRIME THAT STOLE EVERYTHING ⚠️ On a Thursday evening in September 1989, Patricia Lowry was found in the parking garage of the shopping center where she worked as a cashier in a mid-sized city in Ohio. She was thirty-one years old. She had been strangled. Her purse was intact. Her car keys were in her hand. The crime had the characteristics of something that happened quickly, an ambush between her car and the elevator, and the evidence collected that night was processed using the forensic technology available in 1989, which meant very little usable DNA material, no comprehensive digital records, no cell tower data, no surveillance cameras covering the angle where her body was found. The case was assigned to two detectives, pursued aggressively for eight months, and then gradually moved to the cold file as new cases demanded resources and the trail yielded nothing that pointed definitively at anyone.

Tragedy at Brookwood Hospital. Content Warning.
Tragedy at Brookwood Hospital: Newborn Survives After Fatal Hospital Room Shooting in Homewood, Alabama Homewood, Alabama — March 1, 2026 What should have been one of the most life-affirming moments for a young family instead ended in devastating loss inside a hospital room at Brookwood Hospital’s Women’s Center. A newborn child entered the world under medical care and, within minutes, became the sole survivor of a fatal double tragedy that authorities are investigating as an apparent murder-suicide. The incident, involving 19-year-old Kynath William Terry Jr. and his 24-year-old wife, Precious Elicia J’anae Johnson, has left the Homewood community shaken and reignited urgent conversations about domestic violence, emotional instability during major life transitions, and safety even within medical institutions. While many details remain under active investigation, what is known paints a deeply troubling picture of a family moment that turned catastrophic in an instant. A Routine Birth That Turned Into a Crisis According to early reports from local authorities and hospital sources, Precious Elicia J’anae Johnson had just given birth to a baby girl at the Women’s Center of Brookwood Hospital on March 1, 2026. The atmosphere in maternity wards is typically filled with celebration, relief, and emotional bonding. Family members often gather in hospital rooms to witness first moments, take photographs, and begin the process of adjusting to new parenthood. But shortly after Johnson’s delivery, that sense of joy was shattered. Investigators report that Kynath William Terry Jr., the newborn’s father and Johnson’s husband, was present in the hospital room when a confrontation occurred. Within moments, that confrontation escalated into fatal violence. Authorities say Terry fatally shot Johnson inside her hospital room, before turning the weapon on himself in what is being described as an apparent suicide immediately following the attack. Hospital staff responded quickly after hearing the disturbance and alerts from within the facility. Security and medical personnel rushed to the scene, but both Johnson and Terry were ultimately pronounced dead. The newborn baby, delivered shortly before the shooting, survived and was immediately placed under medical supervision.
