Tijuana Escorts: Detective: Pair Killed Elderly Woman,…, 10News.com
Alan Hayes was one of many who testified at the preliminary hearing of his son, Brandon.
“She died from strangulation,” said Det. Suzanne Fiske, of the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department Homicide Unit.
Cothron, who lived at the Alpine Mobile Estates, believed her grandson was abusing drugs and stealing from her. Brandon Hayes is accused of murder and robbery, along with alleged accomplice Jeffrey Reed.
“Mr. Reed used a business card to distract her, and that’s when Mr. Hayes rushed in and attacked her,” said Fiske.
Prosecutor Kurt Mechals said after strangling his grandmother, Brandon Hayes and Reed went to Mission Valley on a shopping spree. From there, the pair went to Mexico to spend the $1,500 they stole from Cothron, prosecutors added.
“They bought drugs. They bought prostitutes. They drank,” said Fiske.
