Episode 27: MYSTERIOUS DEATH
Brandon Embry – Asheboro, NC (Part One)
A young Navy veteran was found brutally beaten and unrecognizable inside his own apartment — yet authorities ruled his death natural. What really happened to 33-year-old Brandon Embry?
Episode Summary
In this two-part episode of True Crime Unwind, we cover the devastating and baffling case of Brandon Wesley Embry. Brandon was a bright, kind, and driven man — a Navy veteran and top-of-his-class chemical engineering student — who dreamed of starting a family and building a future close to his loved ones. But in September 2019, Brandon’s family discovered him clinging to life in his apartment, naked, bloodied, and covered in injuries that hospital staff immediately described as signs of a violent assault. Just a day later, he would succumb to his injuries. Despite overwhelming evidence of trauma, the official ruling would shock his family — pneumonia, natural causes, and self-inflicted injuries.
In Part One, we walk through Brandon’s background, his final days, and the horrific discovery that set his family on a lifelong mission for truth. We’ll also hear from Brandon’s mother, Sarah, who courageously shared her experience and the information she’s uncovered in her fight for justice.
