Brown faces a maximum life sentence in prison, but because he was under 15 when he committed the murder, he will not be subjected to the mandatory life sentence that adults are. The murder occurred on the evening of Aug. 27, 2021, when the Lancaster City Bureau of Police responded to the 500 block of Third Street for the report of a man lying in the street after gunshots were fired.
Police later found 23-year-old Rolando Rivera dead at the scene. The Lancaster County Coroner’s Office later determined the cause of death to be multiple gunshot wounds to the head and torso. Lancaster County police found video footage showing Brown and Rivera along the 500 and 600 blocks of Manor Street before the homicide.

The footage reportedly captured Brown raising a firearm and shooting multiple times at the victim, even after he fell to the ground.
