All we know about Bradley's past is that he was raised mostly by his mother, who died before Bradley became an adult. We also know that he came from a big family, but it appears that his family wasn't particularly close.

Bradley lost his mom and his father spent a good deal of time in prison. So it's safe to assume that Bradley didn't have the best guidance as he was growing up. Though these details about Bradley's life were of little concern to Tina's family and the prosecutors.

Before the attack on Tina Lohman, Bradley truly did seem to be a nobody. He was just a repeat criminal offender with an unfortunate upbringing, and that's really all there was to him. Unfortunately, Tina crossed paths with this nobody, and Bradley Yawn victimized Tina in ways that are beyond comprehension.

So for the sake of keeping the public safe and for the sake of hopefully getting some justice for Tina, Bradley and his female accomplice, Karen Blackledge, were arrested.

Just one day after Tina was attacked, Bradley and Karen were found at the same location and arrested. The news of their arrests quickly reached Tina and her family.

Bradley and Karen were in custody and the wheels of justice began to turn. At the first court appearance, the judge ordered a $5 million bond for Karen and a $15 million bond for Bradley, which was an Adams County record. At this point, it appeared that things were going to play out like they do in every other criminal case. Bradley and Karen could plead guilty or not guilty.

They might take a plea deal from prosecutors or they might take their respective cases to trial. It seemed like business as usual in America. But about a month after their arrests, something unexpected happened that threatened the likely conviction of these two criminals.

On December 12th, 2021, just weeks before her favorite holiday, Tina Lohman, died. While this was obviously devastating for Tina's family, it was also potentially devastating for the prosecution's case. Without Tina, the prosecutors no longer had a victim or a witness to the crime.

As time went on, the chances that Bradley Yon and Karen Blackledge would walk free and avoid being held accountable for what they did to Tina started to seem like a real possibility. Next time on This Doesn't Happen to People Like Me.
