The Deadly Scandal of Pat Brun

This story shook the small town of Searchlight and the elite community of Seven Hills in Nevada: Braxton Townson, an 18-year-old bride, was found brutally murdered shortly after marrying Pat Brun, a 75-year-old transgender socialite. From a brief, lavish relationship, a glamorous wedding, to the discovery of a body disposed of through a kitchen drain, this investigation unravels a dark secret filled with betrayal, obsession, and deadly rage. Unique facts, such as the couple's nearly six-decade age gap, Pat's lavish lifestyle, and the use of an almost unimaginable “body disposal” method, make this case one of the most shocking in Nevada.
In this episode, you will learn how Braxton's dream of escaping a simple life ended in tragedy, how Pat's obsession turned into murder, and the suspicious roles of those around him, from his former financial advisor to Pat's own biological child. This case is not just about love that ended in death, but also a bitter lesson about the dangers of power, manipulation, and relationships built on imbalance.
