Former NFL player Sergio Brown to face murder charges in mother's killing: What we know

Former NFL player Sergio Brown, who had been missing since his mother was found dead last month, has been arrested in California and is expected to face a first-degree murder charge in the killing of his mother once he is extradited to Illinois. Sergio Brown's mother, Myrtle Brown, was found dead in a creek near their home, and her death was ruled a homicide. Sergio Brown, who had traveled to Mexico, was taken into custody by Mexican authorities and deported to San Diego, where he awaits extradition. The family has released a statement urging officials to advance the case, and Sergio Brown's whereabouts were known by Mexican law enforcement since September 19.
