Walkerville, MD – An FBI agent believed
to be responsible for the latest email leaks “pertinent to the investigation”
into Hillary Clinton’s private email server while she was Secretary of State,
was found dead in an apparent murder-suicide early Saturday morning, according
to police.
Investigators
believe FBI agent, Michael Brown, 45, shot and killed his 33-year-old wife,
Susan Brown, late Friday night before setting the couple’s home on fire and
then turning the gun on himself. Brown was a 12 year veteran of the Washington
D.C. Metropolitan Police Department before spending the last six years in the
FBI.
Neighbors saw smoke coming from the
Brown residence and called 9-1-1 at approximately 11:50 p.m. By the time fire
crews arrived on scene minutes later, the entire house was engulfed in flames.
“Mrs. Brown’s death was caused by a
gunshot wound prior to the house fire,” Walkerville Police Chief Pat Frederick
said, “while Mr. Brown’s single-bullet head wound appears to have been
self-inflicted.”
“The totality of the evidence leads us
to believe this is a murder-suicide. We believe he killed her, set the house on
fire and then took his own life,” Frederick said.
The findings support conclusions by
investigators Saturday that the couple perished in a murder-suicide during
which the 4,000-square foot house was intentionally set on fire. Authorities
outlined a likely scenario based on interviews with neighbors and comments
posted on Mr. Brown’s Facebook page.
Brown
is believed to have started the gasoline-fueled fire but spared the life of his
beloved beagle, Dixie. “Prior to the fire, he dropped off the dog at a
neighbor’s house,” Frederick said. “He put the dog in a neighbor’s backyard.”
A neighbor told WHAG that
Brown appeared “panicked” though it is unclear whether his wife was dead before
or after the dog was removed from their home.
The motive behind the killing is still
being investigated, but police say Brown was a highly respected agent with the
FBI and very well liked in the community. “What leads someone to this level of
anger and violence with your wife, your loved one, who knows,” said an FBI
official who knew the Brown family.
Conspiracy theories are running rampant
throughout many alt. right media outlets, leading many to believe this was
another “hit job” by the Clintons in retaliation for the FBI email leaks so
close to the presidential election. Media outlets like Alex Jones’ Infowars
and WND are running with the theory that globalist
assassins, working for the Clintons, had the Brown family murdered and their
home burned to destroy any possible evidence.
FBI Director James Comey refused to
comment at this time but asked for privacy and prayer as the bureau comes to
terms with losing “two very close friends.”
This
is a developing story.
