Monday night’s episode of Deadly Case Files focuses on Detective Rod Emery’s investigation of the murder of Roshenna Crowder.
On July 30, 2011, 25-year-old Roshenna Crowder was shot and killed while hiding in the closet of her bedroom. Her boyfriend, Donald Brown, also known as “Scrap,” was also shot multiple times but survived. The couple’s peaceful night was shattered when at least three armed men forcibly entered their home, resulting in a tragic and brutal attack.
The incident unfolded in the 6100 block of Fairfield Avenue, Shreveport, shortly after 9 p.m. on a Saturday. Crowder and Brown were believed to have been victims of a violent home invasion and robbery. The perpetrators’ forceful entry and use of firearms resulted in Crowder’s untimely death and left Brown fighting for his life at LSU Hospital.
Roshenna Crowder’s young children, aged 4 and 8, were at home during this terrifying event. They displayed courage and quick thinking by running to their grandmother’s house to seek help and report their mother’s tragic fate. The children’s account to the police revealed that several men knocked on the door and then entered with a gun, leading to the fatal shooting of their mother.
