The Suspicious Death of Shawn O'Brien (Rhode Island)

RHODE ISLAND, 2006: Was it a seizure or did somebody murder Shawn O'Brien? His daughter, Natalia St. Louis, just wants to know the truth, but the details of that July afternoon in 2006 don’t make any sense. It was labeled a medical call, an apparent seizure, but the autopsy report and blood evidence at the scene point to something much more violent than that. Over 15 years later, Shawn O’Brien’s case is still labeled a suspicious death.

She’s been told to keep quiet, but if she’s not asking questions, chasing down leads, and talking about father’s case, who will?
