Brittney Dwyer

At nineteen years of age, Brittney Jane Dwyer developed an obsession with horror movies and television shows. Brittney has always a taste for violence and the darker side of life, but her family never noticed a lack of empathy. She grew up with a stable household and loving family. "She was a strong-willed, adventures, tom-boy growing up," says her mother Tonya Dwyer. During her high school years, she developed a close bond with a school friend named Shelby Lee Holmes, but she spent the majority of her time alone. Brittney isolated herself as a teenager and did not fit in with a popular crowd. Brittney seemed to be a relatively normal girl up until she became addicted to drugs and murdered her eighty-one-year-old grandfather in cold blood.
