We will never truly know what happened to her that night.
We can only imagine.
Brooke's case went before jurors the first week of December 2000.
This trial was of high public interest.
There were reporters just clamoring to get inside for gavel to gavel coverage.
The very first words out of the prosecutor's mouth, which I'm gonna have to bleep,
were you her then they went on to prove that the semen and the skin cells underneath brooks fingernails which produced dna 137f matched brian eugene jones perfectly there was also a witness that took the stand and said they saw a scratch across brian's face the day after brooks murder the prosecution made sure to show the knife
the broken handle that had brooke's blood on it and a piece of her flesh and they also made sure to show that brian was a liar he said he never had sex with brooke but the dna proves otherwise and that was the defense's argument by the way that he merely had sex with brooke totally consensual the defense also argued that there was a very little evidence to show that brian hurt brooke but there were several other individuals with a motive
and opportunity who well the other guys that brooke was having relations with yeah they actually tried to paint her as though she was asking for it because she was seeing a number of men this is victim blaming at its finest they really tried to put poor brooke on trial instead of brian
the jury wasn't having it after just five hours of deliberation they reached a verdict guilty on all counts they didn't know this but he was already sentenced to 60 years in prison for pleading guilty to erica's murder and now on top of that sentence he was given life without the possibility of parole for the murder of brooke baker it's closure for the families but it's just sad that erica had to die so that brooke's murder could be solved there's a couple other things that i wanted to tell you
brian never spoke at the trial but years later he wrote a letter to brooke's family and in it he said that he had searched and searched for the right words to convey to them how terrible he felt for taking such a wonderful person from this world brooke's mom didn't care what he had to say she wondered why he hadn't thought of that before he killed brooke sadly brooke's mother passed away december 9th
2004 at the age of only 47.
She's buried right next to Brooke and here are their gravestones.
One more thing, a very important one.
I want to read you something so special that was put on a plaque on the back of Brooke's gravestone.
It's a piece that she wrote when she was younger and it's about heaven.
and what she thought it would be like.
I want to share it with you because I know that she wanted to be remembered for her writing, and it's a little long, but I promise it's worth it.
It's called A Place to Imagine, and it goes like this.
As I start to fade into that unknown realm, I can feel the warmth like a summer's breeze fluttering across my face.
