Her killer was caught on camera.
his tragic story refers to the murder of Alisha Bromfield (sometimes misspelled as Alicia Bramfield).
In August 2012, 21-year-old Alisha Bromfield—who was seven months pregnant—attended a wedding in Door County, Wisconsin, as the plus-one of her supervisor, 36-year-old Brian Cooper. During the event, Alisha participated in the celebrations and toasted the bride and groom.
A few hours after the reception, back at their room at the Sand Bay Beach Resort, Cooper strangled Alisha to death. Cooper was reportedly obsessed with Alisha, but she had consistently rejected his romantic advances. He later admitted that he killed her because she refused to be in a relationship with him.
Following the murder, Cooper drove south toward Milwaukee. He eventually pulled over at a gas station in Plainfield, Wisconsin, walked up to the clerk, and asked them to call the police because he had just killed someone.
Cooper was convicted of two counts of first-degree intentional homicide—one for Alisha and one for her unborn daughter, whom Alisha had planned to name Ava. In 2014, he was sentenced to two consecutive life terms in prison without the possibility of parole.
