It was understandably a devastating turn of events for her loved ones. "We're going to find out what happened because it's not normal for my sister to not answer her phone, not to respond to text messages. People have been reaching out to her since Friday. No one was able to reach her," her heartbroken sister, Sheila Simmons, told local outlet WGN9.
"Now, I got the call this morning saying that she's missing, so immediately I came out here and find out my sister is dead."

According to prosecutors, investigators also found similarities between DNA samples from under Simmons-Brown's fingernails and a toothbrush in Brown's bedroom.
Public defender Robert Fox argued there were no witnesses to such a crime. "There's no direct evidence. It's all circumstantial," Fox said during a detention hearing in October.
